Carbon sequestration is a phenomenon for the storage of atmospheric carbon dioxide and other forms of carbon to mitigate global warming. The Deccan Plateau, covering a significant portion of central and southern India, faces unique environmental challenges exacerbated by climate change. This research delves into the potential of agroforestry as a sustainable solution, aiming to enhance climate resilience and promote carbon storage in this region. By integrating trees with traditional farming systems, this study seeks to present a comprehensive understanding of how agroforestry can address both ecological and socio-economic challenges in the Deccan Plateau. Agroecosystems also contribute to the mitigation of the climate change and are being an adaptation strategy for the farmers.
