China and Siyang County have undergone a remarkable economic transformation, showing how the practice of agroforestry can be a successful, alternative way of addressing poverty, hunger, malnutrition and deterioration of the environment. In fact, the adoption of poplar-based agroforestry in Siyang County has benefited millions -- this has been largely the result of a long-standing international transfer of germplasm, scientific knowledge and technology facilitated by the International Poplar Commission of FAO.
