“…The next innovation for the success of activities to restore degraded forests and land to be productive and restore environmental quality is the choice of cropping pattern. The agroforestry system was chosen because it has been recognized as a land management option that can contribute to people's incomes and food security, help improve the quality of environmental services and conserve biodiversity [25][26][27]. The agroforestry system emphasizes the choice of multi-purpose tree species with more than one product or service use related to economic, social, and ecological aspects.…”

Undoubtedly, the agroforestry system is the best land use strategy. Still, if it is linked to the success of land rehabilitation, it needs to be re-examined, especially in cases of rapid deforestation. The agroforestry in rehabilitation activities will contribute to the FOLU carbon net sink as one of the climate crisis mitigation programs to support government goals. This research was conducted at Register 38 of Gunung Balak using a qualitative approach through case studies. In-depth interviews were conducted with key informants to obtain data and information. The long struggle for restoring the protected forest area registers 38 of Gunung Balak through various policies ranging from coercion to persuasion, but facing various obstacles has made success very difficult. BPDAS Way Sekampung Way Seputih, in collaboration with the Forestry Service, has recently made breakthroughs in rehabilitating land. In recent years, new ideas on productive and sustainable agro-forestry patterns, with local communities as key stakeholders, are bringing economic, social, and environmental benefits to local communities. This success is expected to help pioneer forest restoration elsewhere.

“…Currently, the federal government's current programs (Estrategia de Acompañamiento Técnico del programa Producción para el Bienestar and Sembrando Vida) seek to formulate strategies in the agricultural sector to produce basic food for society in a sustainable manner (CEDRSSA, 2020). In this sense, the implementation of projects with agroforestry approaches that integrate firstline species has allowed a significant increase in grain production for food security and contributed to the solution of environmental problems, such as the conservation of natural resources (Singh et al, 2021a).…”

The world is currently confronted with a complex task involving the sustainable balance of food production and long-term consumption. One way to face this challenge is through agroforestry systems (ASF). At the national level, there is relevant information on the subject; however, few studies have attempted to analyze trends in agroforestry scientific development over time. In this sense, it was proposed that the number of ASF publications related to food security and natural resource conservation increase on an annual basis. The objective of the present study was to perform a quantitative analysis of agroforestry research published between 1990 and 2022 from Web of Science in Mexico with a bibliometric approach. There were 204 publications related to agroforestry systems, recording an increase of 86 % in the last decade. Among the scientific journals analyzed, Agroforestry Systems and Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine registered the highest number of publications and citations. The most frequent terms mentioned in publications over 32 years were the relationship between the effects of ASF on crops, traditional management, local knowledge, and the conservation of natural resources. The Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM) is the institution with the highest number of research works on the subject, mainly by scientists Alejandro Casas Fernandez and Isabel Moreno Calles, both individually and collaboratively. In conclusion, the number of publications on ASF increased during the time period studied, primarily in the area of food security.

“…In short, agroforestry is defined as a form of resource management combining forests or trees with the cultivation of short-term commodities, such as agricultural crops [20,21]. Agroforestry is defined as a combination of land-use systems that combines trees and shrubs to enhance productivity, profitability, diversity, and ecosystem sustainability [22]. In addition, in the national strategy research of agroforestry in Indonesia, it is stated that agroforestry covers upstream and downstream.…”

Agroforestry on peatlands in Pulau Hanaut sub-district of Kotawaringin Timur is an approach that combines agricultural crops with trees on peatlands. The location of this project is in Serambut and Babaung villages, Pulau Hanaut sub-district. Primary data were collected through Focus Group Discussions (FGD), interviews, and direct observation in the field, and secondary data were collected by studying the related documents that existed. All the data then were analyzed by qualitative descriptive analysis. This site has a peat depth of less than 50 cm and a maximum water table between -10 to -15 cm. Peatland is a unique ecosystem that requires specific considerations for agroforestry practices. Implementing proper water management techniques, such as controlled water levels and irrigation, can help maintain the hydrological balance. Tree species selection that are suitable for peatland conditions were chosen by the communities, such as fruit tree species, cashew nuts, and enrichment planting on the current coconut farm. In addition, fire prevention is also an important part of peatland management. Therefore, zero-burning and organic farming practices should be implemented. Implementing agroforestry on peatlands requires careful planning, considering the unique characteristics of peatland ecosystems, and the ecological, social, and economic aspects of the local community. Local stakeholders’ involvement in decision-making processes is highly recommended to ensure the success of agroforestry initiatives on peatlands in the sub-district, which is part of the Mentaya-Katingan Peat Hydrological Unit, Central Kalimantan.
