    #54 The importance of peer to peer learning to activate local agroforestry dynamics with Claire Lemarié

    In this episode I discuss with Claire Lemarié her experience working with farmers in the Pays de la Loire region in France, where she is a technical adviser for the chamber of agriculture. She has precious insights into the management of mature hedges, as this region still has a significant amount of bocage: a traditional french hedge layout.  In this interview we gain an understanding of why effective information sharing between farmers is crucial to creating innovative agroforestry systems and how she enables peer to peer exchange through the 'Club des Agroforestiers'. • RESOURCES https://www.linkedin.com/in/claire-lemari%C3%A9-34b667155/?originalSubdomain=fr Youtube video Chambre d'agriculture de la Loire • GET IN TOUCH www.regenerativeagroforestry.org • SUPPORT US www.gumroad.com/regenagroforestry • FOLLOW US on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram • FUNDING FOR EUROPEAN PROJECTS https://explore.ecosia.org/regenerative-agriculture Hosted on Acast.

    #51 Feedback from 30 years of research on alley cropping systems with Christian Dupraz

    What have we learnt from 30 years at one of the most prominent agroforestry research sites in the world? In collaboration with AGROMIX, We are excited to present an interview with Christian Dupraz, a leading agroforestry researcher from INRAE Montpellier. This is one of our rare 'in person' interviews where we discussed years of findings under the alley cropping walnut trees of the Domaine de Restinclières. We analysed many technical details such as tree - crop competition, tree pruning and adapted tree species. We also discussed socio-economic aspects such as the relationship with the local farmers and the reason why alley cropping systems have not yet been scaled. Enjoy!

    #49 The potential of agroforestry in human scale regenerative enterprises with Richard Perkins

    I am today with Richard Perkins from Ridgedale Farm in Sweden. For those who do not know, Richard is a leading educator and author in the field of regenerative agriculture, specialising in human scale enterprises. We discuss the tree systems he has planted on his farm, and more specifically the opportunity of integrating trees to market gardening and pastured poultry, two of his key enterprises. Richard is also an educator with the mission of helping farmers to build and manage successful small scale farms. He is therefore the ideal guest to have a conversation on how to make small scale agroforestry systems viable, and their place in the farm strategy. TABLE OF CONTENTS 01:41Richard’s story 05:45 What perennial systems on the farm?  16:08 What place for perennial crops in your long term strategy?  21:30 How do you manage your skill set?  26:07 What oportunity for low managment tree plantings?  31:00 How do you balance complexifying your ecology and maintaining efficiency?  35:48 How to intergrate trees in your market garden?  37:35 Trees and pastured poultry  41:06 How do you make agroforestry profitable on a small scale?   44:32 Funding tree plantations 48:41 Where should we prioritise planting trees in the landscape?   • RESOURCES https://www.richardperkins.co/ https://www.youtube.com/c/RichardPerkinsofRidgedale/ • GET IN TOUCH www.regenerativeagroforestry.org • SUPPORT US www.gumroad.com/regenagroforestry • FOLLOW US on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram • FUNDING FOR EUROPEAN PROJECTS https://explore.ecosia.org/regenerative-agriculture Hosted on Acast.

    #48 Striking the balance between complexity and efficiency in large scale Syntropic systems with Daniel Fröbel

    Today we continue investigating Syntropic Farming with Daniel from the Mata do Lobo farm in Brasil. In the past 4 years, they have been working solutions to scale these complex agroforestry systems, soon reaching 50ha planted. Daniel and his partner, Maria Vittoria, have accumulated some tremendous experience as they build one of the most innovative coffee plantations out there. In this episode, you will find out what is the difference between the health and quality of agroforestry coffee and conventional coffee. You will also understand how they are striking a balance between efficiency and complexity - in order to integrate the principles of Syntropic whilst managing these systems at scale. This was a highly practical conversation, inspired by the questions we received from our listeners on social media. We hope you enjoy! TABLE OF CONTENTS 03:47 Daniel’s story 12:35 Objective of the agroforestry plot   16:01 How do you manage inputs?  20:02 What makes Syntropic less input intensive?  22:39 What does the agroforestry produce?  31:09 How much diversity is integrated to the coffee crop?  35:51 How is the coffee crop responding to the Syntropic system?  41:46 How are coffee yields expected to perform in comparison to conventional?     45:41 How did he plant so many trees effectively?   51:01 How many people working on the agroforestry system?  55:23 How do you manage so much biomass?  01:07:26 What harvesting process for coffee?  01:12:16 What potential of mechanisation for Syntropic systems?  01:14:57 What commercialisation strategy?  01:19:44 Is he planning a processing facility?  01:21:48 Could Syntropic systems work in a European context?   01:24:08 Where does he get knowledge from?   • RESOURCES https://www.instagram.com/matadolobo/?hl=en • GET IN TOUCH www.regenerativeagroforestry.org • SUPPORT US www.gumroad.com/regenagroforestry • FOLLOW US on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram • FUNDING FOR EUROPEAN PROJECTS https://explore.ecosia.org/regenerative-agriculture Hosted on Acast.
