Productivity and quality of maize under cherry trees - How to optimize maize growth under cherry trees

Why combine maize with cherry trees?

Maize is in great demand all over Europe as livestock feed. However, intensive maize production requires large amounts of inputs, including fertilizer and water, which results in low returns and high environmental costs.

Currently, quality timber cherry trees have a high market value due to a shortage of supply.

Featured Farm of the day

Innovative business concept of an organic farm with agroforestry system – Biolandhof Braun, Freising, Germany

The Biolandhof Braun is a much-diversified organic farm with 58 ha of arable land, 17 ha of permanent grassland and some forest. In 1988, the conversion to organic farming took place with the aim of respecting and preserving the environment and resources as well as creation. The interest in closing nutrient cycles lead him via forest garden systems and permaculture to agroforestry.
