Agriculture Forestry and Other Land Use (AFLOU) helps with increased carbon sequestering to provide better climate-related mitigation practices.
What is AFOLU?
Agriculture, Forestry, and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sectors play a vital role in mitigating climate change. These sectors offer cost-effective and sustainable solutions by leveraging nature-based approaches. By focusing on practices like sustainable agriculture, reforestation, and afforestation, AFOLU contributes significantly to carbon sequestration, biodiversity conservation, and improved ecosystem resilience.
Our ALFOU solutions are based on several Nature-based Services that minimize the harmful components of climate change through adaptation, resilience and mitigation services. From wetlands restoration and forest conservation practices, our experts combat climate change and environmental damage by minimizing the harmful effects of greenhouse gas emissions.
We are working on large-scale conservation projects, bringing together communities to build a sustainable ecosystem and upholding local community rights. These projects involve the conservation, restoration and management of natural ecosystems, upholding the rights of local communities while providing quantifiable benefits to the surrounding ecosystems and their inhabitants.
Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD) frameworks protect forests from deforestation and degradation in developing countries. REDD+ projects focus on additional activities through result-based payments for emission reductions while working towards the goal of protecting and enhancing forest cover. ProClime's improved Forest Management (IFM) and Afforestation, Reforestation and Revegetation (ARR) projects enable safeguarding and improving our current carbon storage areas. Sustainable Agriculture & Land Management (SALM) promotes soil health, fertility and water retention. This is why agriculture, forestry practices and other bespoke solutions we offer, increase your Enterprise's carbon sequestration goals.
Our major activities to combat climate change and environmental damage through several mitigation options are:
Afforestation, Reforestation and Revegetation (ARR)
Sustainable Agriculture & Land management (SALM)
Improved Forest Management (IFM)
Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD/REDD+)
Wetland Restoration and Conservation (WRC)
Avoided Conversion of Grasslands and Shrublands (ACoGS)
AFLOU stands for Agriculture, Forestry, and Other Land Use. It refers to the sector that manages the Earth's land resources for food production, timber, bioenergy, and other products.
An AFOLU project is a specific initiative or endeavour focused on improving or managing land resources for agriculture, forestry, or other land uses.
Agroforestry is a sustainable land use system that combines agricultural crops with trees and shrubs to optimize the same piece of land.
The amount of greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions achieved through AFLOU projects can vary significantly depending on several factors like project type, location, scale and implementation practices
AFOLU (Agriculture, Forestry, and Other Land Use) plays a crucial role in mitigating climate change through several mechanisms like carbon sequestration and reducing emissions.
Optimize land use, reduce emissions, and enhance sustainability with ProClime's AFOLU solutions.
