WELCOME!
Silvopasture is an agroforestry practice that integrates livestock, forage production, and forestry on the same land-management unit. Silvopasture systems are deliberately designed and managed to produce a high-value timber product in the long term while providing short-term annual economic benefit from a livestock component through the management of forage or an annual crop component.
This website is a companion resource to the technical handbook, Silvopasture: Establishment & management principles for pine forests in the Southeastern United States. (click here to download handbook). The site is designed as an online course and a resource to enable natural resource professionals and landowners to understand and apply the economic and ecological principals of Silvopasture.
