Agroforestry Research & the REFOREST Project

Event Date : October 28, 2024

Event Time : 3:30 pm - 5:00 pm

A deep dive into the ReForest Project and an exploration of agroforestry’s potential to contribute towards UK food system sustainability.

Join Tom Staton of Reading University and Will Simonson of the Organic Research Centre for a review of the latest findings from the REFOREST project, a 4-year European-wide project looking at interventions to improve the uptake of agroforestry on farms. We’ll hear about agroforestry’s potential contribution to net zero, its knowledge infrastructure and how it has evolved over recent decades. Tom and Will will also describe the ReForest UK living lab, including the application of the FarmTree tool to model agroforestry performance and assessments of the sustainability of agroforestry using the Public Goods Tool.

This event is made possible thanks to the UKRI Agri-food for Net Zero Network+
