Ways out of deficit agriculture

Agriculture needs a transformation towards resilient regenerative agroforestry systems.

Trees play an essential role in maintaining the natural water, carbon, and nutrient cycles ,
the basis of any kind of agriculture.

Farmers need examples, of how this can work.

Through our partners, we are building the foundations for the upscaling/multiplication of regenerative agroforestry in all different climate zones of Africa and India.

Our partners demonstration plots are scalable, inspiring farmers, trainers, investors, and communities to make the step from resource exploitation to resource mobilisation, finding ways out of deficit farming.

About us

APN is an association in partnership with doers, implementors and trainers in regenerative agroforestry.

We build a platform of exchange and learning from each other to share the results with our collaborating partners.
