Bamboo agroforestry systems

Summary

Our agroforestry systems offer a holistic approach to sustainable development.

 

For $2500 per hectare, we provide a comprehensive package that includes a bamboo plantation, companion planting, edible forests, animal husbandry, and solar-powered circular ecovillages with space in bungalows for selected investors and visitors. Many of these labors will be executed by women.

 

Additionally, we offer training programs to the ecovillagers so they can work efficiently in our industrial transformation plants, harvest and process the produce from the companion plants and animals in the systems, and contribute to a circular economy.

 

By investing in our agroforestry systems, you are not only supporting sustainable development in rural areas but also contributing to the fight against climate change.
