Silvopasture (Latin, silva forest) is the practice of integrating trees, forage, and the grazing of domesticated animals in a mutually beneficial way. It utilizes the principles of managed grazing, and it is one of several distinct forms of agroforestry.
The benefits of silvopasture include:
Diversified income for farmers of livestock and timber, fruits, nuts, forage, etc
Reduced need for nitrogen fertilization in grass/legume silvopastures
Recycled nutrients from animal wastes benefit forage and tree growth
Delayed forage maturity in the fall and earlier green-up in the spring
Improved cover and forage for wildlife
