MA4SURE

MA4SURE focuses its research and development activities to increase resilience and natural resource use efficiency of farm systems by reducing the current dependence on external inputs (fertilizers, water, energy, pesticides) and to improve the sustainability of agroforestry systems. It willutilise a community inclusive approach to study and model the nexus between farming drivers/pressures and changes in biodiversity, ecosystem services and socioeconomic impacts. It is envisaged to establish a multisectoral partnerships which will be able to address the biophysical evaluation of the multispecies cropping system, the service and benefits provided to the society, and the final economic evaluation of these systems.
