Agroforesta scientific platform on agroforestry in Latin America has been working for 15 years on the development of sustainable and efficient coffee and cocoa-based agroforestry systems. The platform’s members (Cirad, Catie, Promecafé, Bioversity International and ICRAF) are working with production and research and development actors to improve the performance of agroforestry systems in terms of productivity and profitability, as well as their contribution to the well-being of rural populations and the preservation of the environment and natural resources. Share with us the successes of 15 years of research at this event!
