Agro Forestry, which has been an important role in sustainable development due to the following reasons:
  • Reduction in soil erosion: Introduction of Agro Forestry has helped reduce soil erosion and restored soil fertility. Due to vegetative cover the run off rainwater is reduced and the floods are checked. Agro forestry is the ideal example of application of science and technology to rural development.

  • Pre-locate rainwater: The Agro Forestry helps in pre locate rainwater in the soil, which increases ground water table.
  • Biodiversity: Agro Forestry helps to maintain biodiversity. It gives shelter to plants animal birds and soil microbes. Biodiversity is very important for maintaining agricultural productivity.

  • Reduction in Deforestation: Due to availability of fuel wood, there is a significant reduction of deforestation, which reduces ecological balance.
  • Development of Wastelands: Introduction of agro forestry will be useful in the development of wastelands in India. These wastelands when developed would provide fuelwood, fodder, fruits, fiber and oils.
