Advances in temperate agroforestry by Professor María Rosa Mosquera-Losada & Professor María Rosa Mosquera-Losada &  digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

With growing concern about the environmental impact of agriculture and its consequent contribution to climate change, there is an increasing interest in the implementation of agroecological approaches to achieve a more sustainable agriculture. Agroforestry is one area of research which has gained significant momentum in recent years.

Advances in temperate agroforestry reviews key recent advances in measuring and valuing how agroforestry systems promote biodiversity and deliver ecosystem services such as soil carbon sequestration. The book also considers the development of different silvopastoral and silvoarable practices, including integrating trees and livestock in timber forests, orchard and pasture systems, as well as alley cropping and intercropping.

Professor Maren Oelbermann

Dr. Oelbermann earned a Ph.D. in Soil Science from the University of Guelph and pursued post-doctoral studies at Cornell University. Currently, she holds the position of Professor in the School of Environment, Resources and Sustainability at the University of Waterloo in Canada. Her research revolves around the study of carbon and nitrogen transformations in complex agroecosystems, encompassing a wide range of environments from sub-polar to tropical regions. Specifically, she focuses on understanding the functions and processes that govern these transformations in various agricultural systems, such as agroforestry systems and cereal-legume intercrops.
