Integrating Sorghum sudanense into Silvopastoral Systems: A Climate-Resilient Forage for Mountain Landscapes
Key Points
The research aims to evaluate the integration of sorghum sudanense into silvopastoral systems to enhance climate resilience in mountainous regions.
Assessment of traditional silvopastoral systems
Integration of sorghum sudanense as a forage option
Climate impact analysis
Sorghum sudanense shows improved resilience to climate variability
Increased forage availability observed
Positive effects on soil health and biodiversity recorded
Abstract
Silvopastoral systems in mountainous Mediterranean regions, such as Terra Fria Transmontana, are increasingly vulnerable to climate change due to their heavy dependence on native pastures.
