Agroforestry

Agroforestry systems. I have participated in the establishment of numerous agroforestry experimental plots. The goal was to adapt agroforestry models (MIAF, SAF, etc.) to the mountains of eastern Mexico. I focused on answering questions such as What is the right density of trees and shrubs within the cropland? What native species do local communities want? What are the best combinations of native species and crops?

Capacity building. I have conducted numerous theoretical/practical workshops and written technical guides to increase the capacity of agricultural technicians and local communities to establish and manage agroforestry systems. See the publications page of this website to read my work on this topic.

The work presented on this page was done during my years at Pronatura Veracruz. Always in collaboration with many collaborators. It's all about teamwork.
