Regenerative Agroforestry Plantations
As the family ventures into Regenerative Agroforestry specializing in perfumery crops, we consider this as alternative to the traditional tree and agricultural farming. Instead of using the entire property of land for planting native species like Agarwood, Ylang-ylang, Pili (Piling Liitan), Champaca and Cinnamon or raising only livestock dairy farm, our agroforestry operation in CROWN AGROFORESTRY PLANTATIONS will combine these. Livestock like Cattle can also be raised on the land, Goat and Free Range Chickens. Having different types of plants and animals together can leverage several natural beneficial interactions, promoting a healthy ecosystem.
The presence of native Nitrogen Fixing species can help condition the soil and make it more suitable for other plants. Livestock can graze on smaller plants and find shelter under trees, while being raised for milk and meat production. There are countless interactions that can be taken into account when developing an agroforestry, like tall trees protecting smaller crops from flooding, strong wind and rain, and landslides. A row of tall Piling Liitan (Canarium luzonicum) trees can help block strong winds from damaging smaller crops like Tuberose, Cacao, Vanilla, Coffee and vegetables.
