%X Making agricultural fields the “right” place to grow trees requires an enabling environment of policies and availability of finance packages. Agroforestry is essentially doing away with the old paradigm that food will be grown on agricultural land and timber is produced on forest land. Up-scaling of effective agroforestry interventions require effective collaborations between and within governmental departments as well as policy framework that deregulate the private management and harvesting of trees as well directing financial support services to agroforestry farms. The purpose of this half day is to share experiences from the different countries on regulations, incentives and disincentives for private land owners to grow and harvest trees, as well as identifying possible opportunities to create an enabling environment for agroforestry.
