Agroforestry can improve food security, farm diversification and income generation in Zambia

Export citation

Fifteen years of research and development work by the World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) and its partners in Zambia have refined agroforestry technologies that can have a huge impact on food security and income generation at low cost and while protecting the environment. Current policies are failing to take advantage of these new technologies. Minor policy changes could bring about much greater adoption of these proven technologies with major benefits to farmers and the Zambian economy.
