How to reduce the footprint of agriculture on natural forests? Can agro-ecology be applied to agricultural production systems in forest landscapes and improve their performance and sustainability?
A comprehensive comparative analysis of agricultural production systems in forest landscapes will identify the most sustainable farming practices and help in the development of technical proposals to reduce the environmental impact of agriculture while improving technical, economic and social performances. The Forecast project aims to produce analytical tools and educational resources for a better understanding of agricultural systems in forest landscapes, through analysis, modelling and comparisons.
The project will develop an online platform on agroecology in forest landscapes. Users will find educational resources, analytical and modeling tools, and a database of case studies of forested social-ecological systems (SES) allowing comparative analysis of the impacts and performances of agricultural practices.
The modeling tools and the database developed in the project will be valued later on to conduct a systematic meta-analysis of agriculture in forest landscapes in tropical, Mediterranean and European regions. Innovations will be co-built with stakeholders (farmers and others), involving national agencies and local organizations to ensure their promotion and implementation.
