Аннотация
Agroforestry is a powerful practice for sustainable and regenerative intensification because it promotes multifunctional landscapes that deliver ecological functions that contribute to livelihoods, land productivity, biodiversity conservation, and other ecosystem services. The main idea of this paper is to review Agroforestry contribution to livelihood and carbon sequestration in Ethiopia. Home gardens, farms, woodlots, and coffee farms are the most prevalent forms of agroforestry methods; yet, farmer perceptions and their distribution differed. Amazingly, because agroforestry produces a variety of services from a small unit of land, each technique adds many advantages. The main benefit was diversification of production, which is the optimal approach, especially for smallholder farmers whose livelihoods depend on agricultural systems. In comparison to monocropping, agroforestry is much more acceptable and recommended. As a result, it offers both environmental and socioeconomic benefits, such as reduced soil erosion, increased soil moisture and fertility, coffee shade, and maintenance of the microclimate balance, as well as tree products and income. These and other advantages help rural communities diversify their sources of income and provide protection. Much of the aboveground carbon is held in homegardens (28.2 ± 6.0 Mg C ha−1), perennial tree crop systems (23.7±10.0 Mg C ha-1) and trees on boundaries (26.7±14.1 Mg C ha−1). In general, it's a useful tool for adjusting to and reducing climate change. As a consequence, farmers considered it as essential to maximize the productive potential of their land and enhancing the standard of living for smallholders. Therefore, in order to help farmers improve their standard of living and adapt to the unpredictable nature of climate change, the government should support agroforestry practices.
