Agroforst nach Keyline Prinzipien mit Rotationsweide

Agroforestry system type:

Size of agroforestry system area(s) (in ha):

Percentage of area under trees/shrubs (in %):

Establishment (date):

Site specifics:

• drought / low water holding capacity
• low soil fertility
• susceptibility to erosion
• species-poor site
• landscape with few structures / landscaope elements

Farming sectors:

• Livestock farming
• Fruit growing

Tree species:

• Maple (Acer spp.)
• Apple (Malus domestica)
• Birch (Betula spp.)
• Pear (Pyrus communis)
• Rowan (Sorbus aucuparia)
• Wild Service Tree (Sorbus torminalis / Torminalis glaberrima)

• Willow (Salix spp.)
• European Crab Apple (Malus sylvestris)
• Wild Pear (Pyrus communis subsp. communis)
• English / Persian Walnut (Juglans regia)

(Intended) use of trees:

• food production (e.g. production fruit/nut)
• environmental benefits (incl. carbon/ windbreaks/ animal welfare/ biodiversity)

Shrub species:

• Hazelnut (Corylus avellana)
• Alder Buckthorn (Frangula alnus)
• Juneberry (Amelanchier lamarckii)
• Dogwood (Cornus spp.)

• Cornelian Cherry (Cornus mas)
• Blackthorn (Prunus spinosa)
• Silverberry (Elaeagnus commutata)

(Intended) use of the shrubs:

• food production (e.g. production fruit / nut)
• environmental benefits (incl. carbon/ windbreaks/ animal welfare/ biodiversity)

Motivation/rationale for establishing or maintaining agroforestry system:

• establish ecological balance
• Higher productivity
• Erosion protection
• Diversified product range
• Contribution to climate protection / resilience
