The USDA National Agroforestry Center in partnership with the Savanna Institute is pleased to announce the release of the publication titled Multifunctional Buffers: Design Guidelines for Buffers, Corridors, and Greenways. This publication—a revision of a 2008 handbook—updates design guidelines for vegetative buffers that can help land managers enhance production and environmental benefits on their lands, build climate resilience, and enhance rural prosperity and food security. It includes over 80 illustrated rules-of-thumb that were developed from a review of more than 1,900 research publications. Guide can be downloaded at: https://research.fs.usda.gov/treesearch/69985
