The Importance of Paludiculture-based Agroforestry in Peatlands
by and -Peatlands are known as marginal lands and are ideally not intended for farming activities. However, due to the limited productive land and the increasing needs of people living in the peat area and its surroundings, some of the peat areas is used as land for cultivation. However, problems arise when cultivation activities are carried out not in accordance with the principles of sustainable peat management, thus causing peatland degradation. Paludiculture-based agroforestry can be a solution to this problem because its principles are in line with restoration efforts and are able to provide more economic and environmental benefits.
