Agroforestry can raise carbon (C) stocks of agricultural systems, and such increases can potentially be sold as CO2 emission offsets. We assembled information on the biophysical, technical, economic, and practical potential of agroforestry to sequester C for the West African Sahel, East Africa, a...

Agroforestry can potentially help smallholder farmers adapt to climate change. Trees, including fruit trees, are less prone to water stress than annual crops, and they provide valuable products for subsistence and income generation. Mango (Mangifera indica L.) production is an integral component ...

Cultivation potential of different mango varieties in Kenya, considering likely impacts of climate change
Establishing parkland agroforestry on currently treeless cropland in the West African Sahel may help mitigate climate change. To evaluate its potential, we used climatically suitable ranges for parklands for 19 climate scenarios, derived by ecological niche modeling, for estimating potential carb...
