REFLECTION QUESTIONAction Track: Climate Resilience Learn More about SilvopastureHad you heard of the term "silvopasture" before now? After learning more about it, what do you think is the biggest advantage of silvopasture?
Brooke Rea 4/07/2021 8:06 AMI had not heard of silvopasturing before. It seems the biggest advantage is the symbiosis an animal farmer can achieve between raising animals and the land need to raise them. With having specific land features that are planted and maintained, the animals, the plants and the earth all benefit.
