Upscaling agroforestry for dairy production in Nepal: the role of the Setidevi Cooperative

This is the fifth in a series of case studies on the innovative tactics used by forest and farm producer organisations or Indigenous Peoples and local community groups to improve the uptake of one of three main types of agroforestry system: shade grown cash crops (that mix trees and crops), silvopastoral systems (that mix trees and livestock), and home gardens (that mix trees, crops and livestock).

This case study focuses on how the Setidevi Dairy Producers Cooperative Society Limited (Setidevi Cooperative) of Nepal has helped its members to overcome challenges of upscaling agroforestry systems that include mixed dairy cattle, trees and crops to foster climate-resilient landscapes and better living conditions.
