International Journal of Research in Agriculture and Forestry Volume 2, Issue 1, January 2015, PP 11-20 ISSN 2394-5907 (Print) & ISSN 2394-5915 (Online) Socio-Economic Impact of Cropland Agroforestry: Evidence from Jessore District of Bangladesh M.

We surveyed 84 farmers of two sub-districts named Manirampur and Bagherpara under Jessore district in the south-west region of Bangladesh through using a questionnaire during the period of June to July 2013. It follows a multistage random sampling procedure for selecting respondents. The main objective of the study is to assess the socio-economic impact of Cropland Agroforestry (CAF) on farmers’ livelihood. The survey results reveal that CAF farmers’ socio-economic status is better than that of Non-Cropland Agroforestry (NCAF) or monoculture farmers. This study finds that housing pattern, level of education, land and other physical assets are significantly different between CAF and NCAF farmers. The mean annual household income of the surveyed CAF farmers is Tk. 0.19 million which is significantly higher (p<0.05) than that of the surveyed NCAF farmers. Household income also varies widely according to farm size and number of members in a household. The Weighted Mean Index (WMI) of five major indicators of farmer’s household livelihood situation reveals that CAF farmer’s household energy and food situation, affordability of education, medical and clothing expenditure is better than NCAF farmers. -
