Restoring Streams with Syntropic Agroforestry

By: The Posts Author | Posted on: 16 Jul 23

Say hello to Manuela. She is one of my dear friends and a powerful leader in Barichara, Colombia. It is largely thanks to her that syntropic agroforestry has arrived in our local community as a powerful way to grow food, restore soils, and bring native forest back to degraded lands.In this brief article, I would like to share how Manuela is applying syntropic agroforestry techniques to restore a dry stream in one of the important drainages of our territory.

  Last year, the folks at Our World in Data published an article and some graphics about how human diets affect land use.

Our World in Data suggests that globally about 1/3rd of forests and 2/3rds of grasslands and

Part of the problem is that decision-makers are locked into trying to solve problems within the framework of the incumbent paradigm. But this paradigm is about to be dramatically transformed, opening up entirely new ways of thinking about forests. Far from focusing purely on ‘band aid’
