Agroforestry in viticulture for climate resilience

Agroforestry in viticulture enhances ecosystem resilience by integrating trees and shrubs into vineyards to combat drought, wind, and heavy rain. This practice restores natural plant interactions, improves soil health, increases biodiversity, and supports sustainable, organic grape production. Trees sequester carbon, regulate water, and buffer microclimates. The guide details historical vine-tree relationships, root dynamics, soil microbes, and practical implementation.
