     I had never heard of the term "silvopasture" though I think I may have heard a classmate or two use it once, but I had no idea what it meant. From my research, silvopasture seems like a way to prevent the damage of industrial agriculture, while providing food. To me, the biggest issue of silvopasture seemed like the use of animal agriculture which would probably feed into the use of animal products, which as a vegan I couldn't condone; but looking at it from a vegan perspective, I think that it could be a wonderful opportunity to adopt former farm animals and care for them!
