Now in its 13th year, the Inga Alley-Cropping pilot in northern Honduras has transformed steep, degraded land into thriving agroforestry systems. Supported by an all-Honduran team, 500 smallholder families have planted over three million native nitrogen-fixing trees, capturing or avoiding 876,000 tons of carbon in just 12 years. This approach halts slash-and-burn deforestation—responsible for the loss of 200,000 acres each day—and advances 12 of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals, with no negative impact.
