Agroforestry Methods as a Substitute for Sustainability in the Economy and Environment

Abstract Agroforestry is agriculture that includes raising livestock and crops alongside trees on the same piece of land at a point in time. The world's main issue today is the shrinking area covered by forests. Roads, industry, urbanization, and population are all growing geometrically. More land must be covered by tree plantations to meet the increasing requirements, yet horizontal expansion of the area covered by trees is not feasible. Under such situations, agroforestry based on poplar can prove to be an appropriate choice as it meets the demand for wood products and helps in enhancing people's economic status.
The main objectives of the study are to review the application of poplar-based agroforestry and to examine how this land use system preserves ecological systems in comparison to monocultures while also helping to create jobs and revenue. For this study, the data are collected from a variety of sources, including books, websites, research papers, and articles. Poplar wood contributes to carbon sequestration, which reduces greenhouse gas emissions and CO2 in the atmosphere. Additionally, farmers can earn profit from the carbon market by exchanging carbon. It is possible to use ethanol made from poplar biomass in place of fossil fuels. The research is expected to infuse farmers with renewed optimism in the agriculture industry and can support government initiatives aimed at increasing farmers' income and protecting the environment.
