The project “Towards agroforestry in fruit growing” aims at studying the possibility of implementing service and/or productive trees, shrubs and vines into orchards, in order to enhance biodiversity, microclimate, soil fertility, water management, etc.
To do so, the project is constituted of bibliographic study, preliminary soil experiments, support to farmers who are designing agroforestry systems, and meetings with other scientists to build research projects.
