Center for Andean Agroforestry

What is Mollesnejta?

Mollesnejta is a experimental farm practicing agro-forestry spanning a size of 16 hectares in Combuyo about 30 kms from the city of Cochabamba, Bolivia.

We welcome students, researchers, volunteers and anyone who is actively willing to improve and promote agroforestry and to learn about it actively.

We demonstrate through agroforestry practice – an Inca ancestral technique proven 1000 years ago during a warming in the Andean region – the possibility of achieving agroecological production, restoring degraded soil, adapting crops to climactic changes and achieving short, medium and long-term sustainable production, while protecting natural resources (soil, water, air, biodiversity), despite adverse weather conditions.
