Agroforestry is…… ……the intentional mixing of agricultural and forestry elements to help build productive, healthy & resilient operations and landscapes. ………depending on the practice, it incorporates the other GLBW CLCs: Perennial Forage & Grazing Perennial Biomass Cover Crops Green Lands Blue Waters Partnership – 2012 Conference – Ames, Iowa

Mid-American Agroforestry Working Group (MAAWG) Green Lands Blue Waters Partnership – 2012 Conference – Ames, Iowa BARRIERS: Lacks institutional support Current rules effectively eliminate agroforestry practices from consideration for govt subsidies and cost-share programs Limited knowledge of agroforestry among agency personnel Often relegated to a number of disconnected, disperse and independent practitioners which limits impact at landscape level NEED : To move agroforestry into the mainstream as (1) a set of practices w/ viable markets & rural enterprises driving adoption, and (2) a system integrated at a landscape level with other sustainable land-use options.

Mid-American Agroforestry Working Group (MAAWG) Green Lands Blue Waters Partnership – 2012 Conference – Ames, Iowa SUGGESTIONS 1.Improve agroforestry connections to other CLC strategies (and watersheds) through GLBW a. Annual meeting like this one or different model to enhance interaction. b. Start collecting tools in central location for easier incorporation of agroforestry (i.e., targeting tools for riparian buffers for multiple purposes)

Mid-American Agroforestry Working Group (MAAWG) Green Lands Blue Waters Partnership – 2012 Conference – Ames, Iowa c. List out ‘issues’ w/in Farm Bill that are creating adoption ‘dis-incentives’ to WQ/watershed improvement project.

Mid-American Agroforestry Working Group (MAAWG) Green Lands Blue Waters Partnership – 2012 Conference – Ames, Iowa 2.Addressing misconceptions/misperceptions of agroforestry w/in agencies, landowner groups & nat. resource providers – DEVELOPING A COMMON UNDERSTANDING a. Tool: Visualization Catalog of Agroforestry Practices for different regions w/in GLBW b. COMMON LANGUAGE/DEFINITIONS

Mid-American Agroforestry Working Group (MAAWG) Green Lands Blue Waters Partnership – 2012 Conference – Ames, Iowa 3. TRAINING & EDUCATION: a. SARE proposal: Agroforestry Academy (Gold-MO) --If not funded, turn to Agroforestry Framework Executive Steering Team b. Tying into national-level forestry & crop certification programs (SAF/Tri-Societies) so that agroforestry webinars can inform all that interact w/ landowner (CCA, Farm Managers).
