National Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration Scale-up Business Plan: ZAMBIA 2023-2033
The Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR) Business Plan for Zambia (2023–2033) outlines a comprehensive strategy to restore 2 million hectares of degraded land, contributing to climate resilience and improved livelihoods. World Vision Zambia aims to directly restore 600,000 hectares through community-based programming and catalyse broader adoption of FMNR practices to cover an additional 1.4 million hectares. FMNR is a cost-effective land restoration technique that involves the regeneration of native trees and shrubs from existing root systems or seeds.
