Agroforestry is a powerful way to transform farming systems by introducing trees alongside crops and livestock. Beyond its environmental benefits, agroforestry offers farmers a significant economic advantage through enterprise stacking—a strategy that allows multiple enterprises to operate on the same piece of land, generating several revenue streams simultaneously. This post explores the economic case for agroforestry, focusing on how enterprise stacking can maximize profitability while increasing farm resilience.

One of the most promising types of agroforestry for UK farmers is silvopastoral systems, which combine trees and livestock grazing on the same land. In this follow-up article, we’ll dive deeper into what silvopastoral systems are, how they are designed, and the key benefits they offer to both farmers and the environment.

As the UK agricultural sector faces growing challenges from climate change, soil degradation, and economic pressures, many farmers are looking for innovative ways to diversify their operations and boost resilience.
