Double your forage with Trees - Agroforestry/Silvopasture

[@taofarm]

Double your forage with Trees - Agroforestry/Silvopasture is an excellent and innovative topic! It's amazing to see how integrating trees with traditional farming can boost productivity and sustainability. Great content!

Chestnuts do have the major issue of chestnut blight (depending on the species). Meanwhile, tagasaste is a good nitrogen fixer, for drier climates.

I currently have 6 Sea Buckthorn trees in my orchard with more planned for the near future. I would like to add that Sea Buckthorn is a cold weather plant native to the Siberian region of Russia and other central Asian countries. Sea Buckthorn is NOT a tropical plant and does not do well in hotter climates. I am in Zone 7 and the leaves on my Buckthorns tend to dry out and burn during the summer months (especially when we have less rain). They are growing, but slower than I expected and slower than most of my other fruit trees. The nursery I bought them from says they grow in Zones 3-8 (some species are adaptable enough to survive in Zone 9). I'm not saying don't try growing them in a Tropical climate, but you should probably temper your expectations and don't invest too much money in them up front until you know how they will adapt to your area. (It is also a Nitrogen fixing plant so by interplanting it around other fruit trees and plants it will add nitrogen back into the soil over time as it grows). Thank you for posting this video! I'm a big fan of the channel, especially your videos on Triticale and Sorghum.

Before Industrial agriculture revolution, it was normal over here to grow trees between the fields, for windrow, feed and firewood or even construction timber.

Would you recommend Willow?

I have read that willows are extremely good for cows and goats.
