On Thursday, Agricology and photographer Duncan Elliot visited Hall Farm in Knettishall to meet regen farmer James Bucher (and dogs!) 🐕🌾 exploring his new 13ha silvoarable system 🌳.

Part of a new profile series with The Woodland Trust – coming soon 👀

Intro to #silvoarable - first session in the ReForest
Training Hub #agroforestryshow with Steven Briggs."Before you put the first spade in the ground, you need to think about your intended outputs! What do you want to produce? How you are going to sell something? "

"silvoarable" war mir auch nicht geläufig. Silvopastoral scheint hingegen durchaus etabliert im wissenschaftlichen Diskurs zu dem Thema (aus meiner laienhaften Perspektive, da ich selbst nicht zu Agroforst arbeite).

🌳 Which trees fit your farm?

Join Colin Tosh&Tom Staton at the #AgroforestryShow Training Hub for a #TreeSpecies session.

Match species to soil/climate, cut competition, design silvoarable/silvopasture.

10–11 Sep 2025, Woodoaks Farm

IAF Member Una Wycherley is on a Teagasc trip to Austria to explore organic innovation. Today's visit to see Almonds in silvoarable systems—first harvest in 2024, aiming for 700kg/100 trees. Wider alleys (21m) planned for better crop access. Agroforestry in action! 🌳🌾 #Agroforestry #OrganicFarming

Zu meiner Schande muss ich gestehen, dass mir die Begriffe "Silvoarable Systeme" (Wechsel von Acker- und Gehölzstreifen) sowie "Silvopastorale Systeme" (Kombination von Tierhaltung mit Gehölzen) nicht geläufig waren.

🌱 #Agroforestry is all about farming with trees – creating healthier soils, higher yields, + helping wildlife to thrive. These systems build resilience for your farm business + nature.

Explore our NEW Agroforestry Hub to learn more 🌳✨.

Agroforestry explained: Check out the different ways that trees can benefit your farming system... Silvoarable: Integrating rows of trees with arable crops creates a 3D farming system that boosts productivity and resilience. Trees reduce soil erosion by up to 65% draw nutrients from deeper soils, and support carbon sequestration. Farmers can benefit from extra income from fruits, nuts, or timber, while crops continue to thrive between rows. Yields can even increase by up to 40%! Silvopasture: Combining trees with grazing livestock improves animal welfare and productivity while enriching soils. Shade and shelter reduce stress, improve survival rates, and extend grazing seasons by up to 17 weeks. Trees provide fodder and habitats for wildlife, while animals fertilise the land, creating a resilient system that benefits both farmers and livestock. Hedges, shelter belts and tree buffers are a vital part of the UK’s farming landscape, offering protection from weather extremes, reducing flood risk, and improving soil, water and carbon resources. They act as natural biosecurity barriers while boosting biodiversity - more than doubling species richness on farms and creating habitat corridors for wildlife.
