EXPANDING CLIMATE-SMART AG THROUGH AGROFORESTRY SYSTEMS

 * Compiled by Staff
 * July 17, 2024
 *   Environment & Climate, Featured - U.S., Seed World U.S.



University of New Hampshire received $10 million to boost climate-resilient
solutions.

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) recently awarded $10 million
the University of New Hampshire (UNH) to pioneer sustainable approaches in
climate-smart agriculture across New England. The initiative aims to bolster
farming and food production while fostering economic growth, enhancing ecosystem
services like clean water and air, and promoting healthy communities.

“Approximately 75% of New England is made up of forests which can be challenging
when trying to expand farming opportunities to meet the growing need for more
sustainable ways to produce locally grown food,” Heidi Asbjornsen, professor of
natural resources and environment and lead investigator on the study said in a
UNH news release.

“But those forests also need to be preserved because they are a globally
important carbon sink that absorbs and stores about 4.6 billion tons of carbon
dioxide each year,” she said. “We’re looking to develop ways to expand
agriculture opportunities while also preserving that carbon storage which is
crucial when addressing climate change.”

The project is called Promoting Climate-Smart Sustainable Agriculture in New
England through Regionally Adapted Agroforestry Systems but is more commonly
known as ADAPT. The five-year program will focus on agroforestry using an
integrated approach combining crop and livestock farming with forested areas.

“Other regions in the country have done similar research on agroforestry but
there really hasn’t been a lot of related research here in New England, which
makes it challenging to make informed decisions,” Asbjornsen said.

Agroforestry and the ADAPT program aim to minimize ecological impact, support
sustainable agriculture and bolster climate resilience.

ADAPT will concentrate on three agroforestry models tailored for New England:

 * silvopastures that integrate trees, pastures and livestock;
 * polycultures that combine trees and shrubs with diverse plant species to
   enhance productivity and resilience in urban food-forests and gardens; and
 * forest farming systems that cultivate crops under forest canopies, enabling
   the sustainable harvest of timber and non-timber products like medicinal
   plants and mushrooms.

The project plans to increase local food production in New England by 15 per
cent, as well as establishing a center for agroforestry research, education and
extension. It will also increase annual carbon sequestration by five million
tons and aims to create new agroforestry markets.

The University of New Hampshire, collaborating with Dartmouth College and Yale
University, will bring diverse expertise to develop, implement and evaluate
resilient agroforestry systems. This partnership will offer training and
technical support to enhance understanding and adoption of agroforestry
practices, positioning them as effective climate-smart strategies.

Co-principal investigators include Steve Roberge, Alexandra Contosta, and Kate
Guerdat from UNH, Theresa Ong from Dartmouth University and Mark Ashton from
Yale University.
