Agroforestry, the intentional integration of trees with crops and livestock, offers a sustainable land-use system that delivers multiple environmental, social, and economic benefits. Among its many advantages, agroforestry plays a significant role in climate change mitigation through carbon sequestration. By capturing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO?) and storing it in plant biomass and soils, agroforestry systems act as natural carbon sinks. Various studies from India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh have demonstrated that agroforestry systems such as Silvipastoral systems, boundary planting and tree-based intercropping exhibit high potential for carbon storage. Species selection, management practices, and system design greatly influence sequestration rates. Beyond climate benefits, agroforestry improves biodiversity, soil health, and farmers' livelihoods, making it a viable solution for sustainable agriculture. Scaling up agroforestry practices can significantly contribute to global efforts aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions while enhancing environmental resilience.
