Agroforestry is a key strategy for sustainable land management, offering solutions to combat land degradation and climate change while boosting social and economic well-being. Understanding where agroforestry can thrive is essential for its successful expansion. This book presents a comprehensive suitability analysis for agroforestry in Hamirpur district, Himachal Pradesh, using advanced geospatial technology and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). By integrating ecological, topographical, soil, climatic, and socio-economic factors, the study maps out highly suitable, moderately suitable, and marginally suitable zones for agroforestry. With an accuracy of 83% and a kappa coefficient of 0.79, the findings provide critical insights for policymakers, researchers, and environmental planners. This research supports evidence-based decision-making for agroforestry projects and aligns with national initiatives like the GROW report by NITI Aayog, India. A must-read for those involved in sustainable land-use planning, this book serves as a valuable resource for government bodies, industries, and organizations committed to ecological restoration and green development.
