“It is very clear that PRETATERRA has become a reference in the promotion of agroforestry systems, both nationally and globally.
They have done this with great competence and credibility because they have experience. Its ability to innovate and share knowledge is essential to the field of agroforestry. It is important to combine innovation with technology and be connected to what happens in the field.
It is a down-to-earth organization, always willing to learn and share. They created a group to exchange experiences and also moderate the discussions. They clearly show leadership in the area of agroforestry.
WE ARE IN THE DECADE OF AGROFORESTRY
AND PRETATERRA IS HERE TO STAY.
PRETATERRA promotes high-level discussions regarding the subject of agroforestry, participating in events, disseminating, creating, innovating through technology. That makes a real difference.
Our partnership with PRETATERRA is open and transparent. We trust each other to find solutions together.
After years, agroforestry finally became relevant in the climate change agenda, especially in the agenda for the recovery of millions of hectares by 2030. We know that a large part of the solution will come through agroforestry, I am sure we will get there, with measurable results, high-quality work and benefits for society”.
