Agroforestry for Community Climate Resilience
Faculty of Business Administration , Bang Khen Campus
Details
The project promoted agroforestry systems integrating trees, food crops, and medicinal plants in community farmlands near the university. A 50-acre demonstration site was developed, showcasing design, soil and water management, and species selection to achieve both production and ecosystem services.
Students and faculty conducted research measuring carbon sequestration in soils and biomass, biodiversity of birds and pollinators, and yield comparisons between agroforestry and monocropping. Results indicated agroforestry increased average farm income by 22% per acre and reduced chemical input by nearly half.
The project enhanced community resilience to droughts and floods, aligning with SDG 2, SDG 13, and SDG 15, and fulfilling 2024 indicators 34 and 96.
