Syntropic Farming and Agroforestry in the Amazon
Fernando Russo: Agroforestry, or farming with trees, maximizes solar intake and produces greater yields in smaller areas. Fernando Russo, founder of Meraki Impact, joins us to describe his enthusiasm for syntropic agroforestry and his investment in reNature, a new, global agroforestry startup building model farms and schools. While ReNature promotes regenerative agroforestry to prevent biodiversity loss, Meraki Impact helps investors to reconcile nature and business with projects across the Amazon.
