In a new guide published today and aimed at decision-makers, key policy advisors, NGOs and governmental institutions, FAO shows how agroforestry can be integrated into national strategies and how policies can be adjusted to specific conditions. The policy guide provides examples of best practices and success stories, as well as suggesting ten major tracks for policy action, including:
raising awareness of agroforestry systems to farmers and the global community
reforming unfavourable regulations in forestry, agricultural and rural codes
clarifying land-use policy regulation
