Agroforestry as a distinct scientific field took root in the 1970s. Initially an emerging concept, it gained serious recognition in the last decade as global organisations such as the IPCC began highlighting its ecological importance. Today, agroforestry enjoys worldwide attention—not only for its ability to boost farm income, but also for its multiple cross-sector benefits, from supporting livestock and pastoralism to strengthening climate resilience in farming systems.
