Agroforestry practices in Northern Cameroon involve integrating trees into agricultural landscapes to enhance productivity and biodiversity. The study employed a mixed-methods approach including interviews with committee members, focus group discussions, and analysis of local agricultural records. A notable trend observed was an increase in tree species diversity from 25% to 40% among participating households, reflecting the committees' success in encouraging agroforestry integration. Community forest management committees have significantly enhanced the adoption and sustainability of agroforestry practices in northern Cameroon through their facilitation and support mechanisms. Further research should explore scaling up these successful models to other rural areas, with a focus on capacity building for local communities.
