Agriculture Landscape Restoration

The Agriculture Landscape Restoration Initiative is a long-term agricultural development program in western El Salvador, in the Department of Ahuachapan. Locally, the program is called “Raíces Ahuachapan.” Program partners developed a working definition of “agriculture landscape restoration,” which will serve to shape strategy and communications for the program. Since there is not yet a widely- shared definition for “agriculture landscape restoration,” we envision that this working document may contribute to the research community and development practitioners involved in agricultural development and landscape restoration. This current working definition is the result of various consultations with the program team throughout 2018, and will evolve over time, with the collective experience and analysis of the program partners.
