Seven layers, one design. Syntropic agroforestry copies the forest's own succession schedule — pioneer species before fruit trees, ground cover before competing weeds, canopy before drought. Everything we publish is organized around that schedule.
about agripure
agripure is an open-source publication and plant database documenting permaculture, syntropic agroforestry, and regenerative farming across Pakistan. We build ground-truthed guides, species profiles, and resources to help smallholder farmers and land managers transition from conventional agriculture to resilient, multi-strata food forests.
We cover everything from nitrogen-fixing pioneer species like moringa and sesbania to climax canopy trees like fajri aam (Fajri mango) and shakarpara apricot (khurmaani), mapping their climate zone suitability, growth habits, and structural roles within the syntropic succession schedule.
Grow where you are
Choose a region and agripure reads its plant profiles in your hardiness scale, keeps your hemisphere’s season, and puts the guides written for you first. Nothing moves — the same pages, in your lens.
