Tracking Agroforestry From Nursery Sapling to Third-Year Survival
Planting photographs are easy. Knowing what survived at year three requires records that started at year zero.
The challenge
- Saplings move from nurseries to distribution points to farms with losses at each step that nobody quantifies.
- Species, count and responsible cultivator are often not recorded at planting, making any later allometric estimate or maintenance obligation indefensible.
- Annual full census of planted trees is unaffordable at programme scale.
How the platform solves it
Nursery-to-field chain of custody
Sapling batches are tracked from nursery production through distribution to the specific farm and planting event, converting an unmeasured loss into a visible number and improving demand forecasting.
Planting records with the detail that matters
Plot boundary, species mix, spacing, count, planting date and responsible cultivator are captured at the planting event — the minimum set that makes later growth estimation and survival claims defensible.
Sampled survival monitoring
Stratified sampling by species, age and geography combined with canopy trend analysis produces a survival estimate with a stated confidence, flagging blocks that warrant a physical visit.
Survival milestones recorded per cultivator
Verified survival is recorded against defined milestones for each cultivator and block, giving the programme an evidence base tied to standing trees rather than to planting-day photographs.
Outcomes
- Sapling losses quantified rather than absorbed
- Year-zero records that make year-three claims defensible
- Survival estimated at scale without a full census
- Programme performance judged on standing trees
