This microcourse is intended for learners interested in the multiple facets contained within agroforestry.
Microcourse information
Landowners may desire to manage for a diversity of products for personal or commercial use. Agroforestry practices may be both enjoyable and profitable for individuals that want to have a “hands on” approach in sustainable land management. This microcourse will give insight on utilizing land for multiple use purposes including row crop production, silvopasture, riparian zone protection, edible/medicinal plants, and mushroom production. A more in-depth coverage of silvopasture is also presented which includes site preparation methods, pros/cons of the silvopasture system, forage establishment, and other relative discussion points. This microcourse heavily focuses on the southeastern United States, but insights can be gained and applied across landscapes everywhere.
Is this microcourse for you?
This microcourse is intended for foresters, natural resource professionals, or landowners interested in learning about the multiple facets that can be contained within an agroforestry system. Individuals that desire to know methodology for installation and the economics of related agroforestry practices will find this microcourse useful as well. The information presented will provide some guidelines for establishment of an agroforestry system and may also provide some insight which has not already been revealed to the audience. Regardless of the current land use or forestland type, agroforestry may be a more rewarding endeavor for the more intensive landowners.

These presentations seek to help us understand how to balance forest health and resilience with optimized carbon storage. They also present multiple narratives on forest carbon management as related to mature and old-growth forests.
Technical session information
Among their many benefits, forests present an invaluable resource for carbon sequestration and storage in our efforts to mitigate climate change. Notably, forest density and carbon stock accumulation can exacerbate threats to forest health and resilience, prompting a need to understand how we can balance forest health and resilience while optimizing for carbon storage.
Is this technical session for you?
These recordings are intended for students and professionals in forestry interested in federal forest policy, defining and conserving mature and old-growth forests, tribal forestry and traditional ecological knowledge, and climate-informed forestry broadly.
