Ethiopian home gardens are sustainable traditional agroforesty systems that grow crops such as ensete (Ensete ventricosum) and coffee (Coffea arabica) that can coexist with various tree species to provide households with food, fuel and cash income, while protecting the soil and biodiversity. They can also enhance resilience to drought and contribute to mitigating climate change by enhancing soil carbon (C) sequestration.
