  • Project description
    The Plan Vivo project intends to provide training for the establishment of new, productive and sustainable agroforestry systems, while educating smallholder farmers on climate change and crop resilience. The agroforestry systems involve plantations of fruit, fuelwood, and high-value timber. Through improved crop yields, farmers will gain greater market access and incremental performance-based payments.
