How TreeShadeAdvisor is used in the field
Explore how professionals, growers and institutions can design from a shade target, review alternatives and document decisions before intervening or establishing a plantation.
- Shade design for coffee: Start from a shade target or your own design and see how shade on the plot changes with date, time and growth.
- Cocoa agroforestry systems: Design from a shade target or explore how different tree combinations change the distribution of shade inside the system.
- Pruning and thinning: Compare scenarios before and after an intervention to see how the shade distribution might change.
- Research and teaching: Create reproducible scenarios to study and communicate how shade changes under different configurations.
- Technical and institutional work: Use shared scenarios to document and compare alternatives in projects, advisory work, or planning processes.
