Impact of Silvipasture on Arid Soil | Farm Diversification | Agriculture

Silvipasture systems create land-use systems that are structurally and functionally more complex with greater efficiencies of resource capture and utilization (nutrients, light, and water) than traditional land management. The greater structural diversity includes nutrient cycling, soil conservation, carbon storage, biodiversity conservation, and enhancement of water quality. Soil quality under silvipasture systems is more similar to that under natural forest than [...]
