Agroforestry as a Viable Business: Value chain integration, advisory services, and economic valuation
2026-01-20 15:00 - 16:00 UTC
Join us to discover how agroforestry can work as a profitable, scalable business model across industries. Drawing on results from the ReForest project, this webinar cuts through theory to show how agroforestry can deliver real economic returns while generating environmental and social value.
This Webinar is intended for policymakers, private companies, value chain actors, NGOs, farmers, advisors, consultants, and researchers to explore how agroforestry can be embedded across value chains, enabled through strong advisory services and knowledge sharing, and translated into measurable, sustainable economic impact.
What we’ll cover:

Proven agroforestry business models and value-chain integration
The economic case: productivity, yields, and returns from ecosystem services
Consultancy and advisory models that support adoption and scale

The session is designed for action and exchange—giving participants the chance to ask questions, challenge assumptions, and share insights, while supporting policy design, corporate strategies, advisory and consultancy services, NGO programmes, and on-the-ground implementation.

ReForest at Treescapes 2026: Dynamic Agroforestry Decision-Making Tool
2026-02-05 - 2026-02-07
5-7 February 2026
As part of the Treescapes 2026 Congress, the ReForest project is proud to be represented by Dr. Prajna Kasargodu Anebagilu, , who will present a talk titled “Decision Analysis for Agroforestry: Insights from the ReForest Project.”
The presentation will showcase the Dynamic Agroforestry Management Tool developed under ReForest. This cutting-edge decision-support tool is designed to help farmers, advisors, and policymakers evaluate the viability of agroforestry practices. By projecting Net Present Value (NPV) over time, the tool accounts for both uncertainty and the complexity of agroforestry systems. It enables evidence-based decision-making before resources are committed, reducing risk for adopters and guiding the design of more effective agroforestry support schemes.
Treescapes 2026 brings together global experts, practitioners, and innovators working to advance sustainable tree-based land management systems. ReForest’s contribution will highlight the critical role of practical, science-based technologies in scaling agroforestry adoption worldwide.

ReForest at the 3rd European Carbon Farming Summit
2026-03-17 - 2026-03-19
ReForest is pleased to announce its participation in the 3rd European Carbon Farming Summit, Europe’s leading event focused on advancing regenerative agriculture and low-carbon farming solutions. The project will be presented with a poster on “Carbon farming practices in Poland” prepared by our colleagues from Polish Agroforestry Association (OSA). The poster will present information about agroforestry practices in Poland which is related to Reforest project activities.
Building on the success of the 2025 edition held in Dublin, where ReForest also took part, the 2026 summit will take place from 17 to 19 March in Padua, Italy. The 3rd Summit programme emphasises collaboration and dialogue to support robust climate action in farming. The summit offers a crucial space to discuss carbon farming implementation, ensuring environmental integrity while scaling up impact.
Participants will:

Explore the latest innovations in carbon farming and soil health
Connect with a diverse network of practitioners, scientists, and policymakers
Discover practical strategies for implementing regenerative agricultural practices
Examine how agroforestry systems can play a key role in climate resilience and carbon sequestration

We look forward to engaging with fellow participants in Padua and contributing to the collective advancement of carbon farming and agroforestry in Europe.
