Successful agroforestry starts with thoughtful site selection. Factors like soil quality, water availability, slope, and sunlight all influence how well trees and crops can grow together.

Selecting the right location ensures that trees support—not compete with—agricultural production,

This little guy is a mudskipper—part fish, part land explorer.

Found in healthy mangrove ecosystems like those in Madagascar, mudskippers can breathe through their skin and even “walk” on land using their fins.

Their presence is a great sign that the mangroves are thriving.

Did you know?

Mangroves can survive in saltwater by filtering out up to 90% of the salt through their roots—or excreting it through their leaves. It’s one of the reasons they thrive along Madagascar’s coasts where few other trees can.

That's Psidium Guajava—sounds like a magic spell, right? But nope, it's just the good old Guava, also known as Peru locally! All organic—once this tree starts bearing fruit, it'll be naturally grown and chemical-free. 🌿✨

During my recent verification trip, I stumbled upon this 3-meter-tall Tectona grandis, its broad leaves shimmering under the sun. Just two years old, this teak sapling is thriving, and so was the community nurturing it.

The community values this tree for being fast-growing, having

Mangrove propagules are planted vertically in muddy ground, mimicking their natural process.

This helps them anchor securely, allowing roots to penetrate the soil and shoots to reach sunlight.

This method ensures high survival rates and supports the rapid growth of thriving mangrove
