Agroforestry is a land-management approach that combines trees, crops or livestock on the same piece of land. Depending on local conditions, farmers may grow crops alongside trees, maintain fodder trees in grazing areas, establish fruit trees around farms or use trees as windbreaks and soil protection barriers. The goal is not simply to plant trees, but to create a system where trees contribute to agricultural production, environmental protection, and household livelihoods.

Waxbarashadu waa tiirka ugu muhiimsan ee lagu dhiso bulsho horumarsan, isku filan, oo leh mustaqbal wanaagsan. Ma aha oo keliya in qofku barto akhriska, qorista iyo xisaabta, balse waa hab qofka lagu kobciyo aqoon, xirfad, fikir, akhlaaq iyo karti uu ugu adeegayo naftiisa iyo bulshadiisa.
Bulsho aan helin waxbarasho tayo leh waxay la kulmi kartaa caqabado badan oo ay ka mid yihiin shaqo la’aan, saboolnimo, caafimaad darro, faham la’aan iyo horumar dhaqaale oo gaabis ah. Dhanka kale, marka bulshada loo helo waxbarasho tayo leh oo loo siman yahay, waxaa kordha fursadaha shaqo, hal-abuurka, caafimaadka, nabadda iyo horumarka dhaqaale.

For countries such as Somalia, where livestock plays a major role in rural livelihoods and trade, improving cattle production can create opportunities for both smallholder farmers and commercial livestock businesses.
