A collective name for land use systems and practices in which woody perennials are deliberately integrated with crops and/or animals on the same land management unit. The integration can be either in a spatial mixture or in a temporal sequence. There are normally both ecological and economic interactions between woody and non-woody components in agroforestry.

Trees and/or shrubs are intentionally used within agricultural systems
Knowledge, careful selection of species, and proper management of trees/shrubs and crops are needed

4. Agroforestry Benefits Diversifies agroecosystems
Increased and stabilized income
Carbon sequestration
Wildlife

5. Agroforestry
Further diversify by having different areas with different mixtures or same mixtures in different stages of development

6. Agroforestry
Farm forestry = monoculture

7. Agroforestry Not just 2 crops/strata
