Silvopasture information


Silvopasture integrates livestock, forage, and trees. (Photo: USDA NAC)

Silvopasture (silva is forest in Latin) is the practice of integrating trees, forage, and the grazing of domesticated animals in a mutually beneficial way.[1] It utilizes the principles of managed grazing, and it is one of several distinct forms of agroforestry.[2]

Properly managed silvopasture (grazed woodland) can increase overall productivity and long-term income due to the simultaneous production of tree crops, forage, and livestock, and can provide environmental benefits and has been practiced in many parts of the world for centuries. Silvopasture is not the same as unmanaged grazing in woodlands.
