Planting trees and crops together.

Land use system in which woody perennials are grown for wood production with agricultural crops, with or without animal production.

Land-use systems that combine agriculture and forestry practices to create a more holistic, integrated, profitable, and sustainable system of food and fiber production.

Agroforestry is the conscious management of trees and shrubs on the farm to enhance whole-farm productivity and sustainability.

growing crops and trees together so that both benefit.

growing both tree and food crops on the same piece of land.

The combined production of both crops and trees to maximize water efficiency.

Agroforestry is a land use system in which woody perennials are grown with agricultural crops (together with other land uses, like animal production).

A collective name for land-use systems and technologies where woody perennials (tree, shrubs, palms, bamboos, etc.) are deliberately used on the same land management unit as agricultural crops and/or animals, either in some form of spatial arrangement or temporal sequence.

A collective name for land-use systems and practices in which trees and shrubs are deliberately integrated with non-woody crops and/or animals on the same land area for ecological and economic purposes. Agroforesterie

Agroforestry aims to combine agriculture and forestry technologies to create more integrated, diverse, productive & sustainable land-use systems. (see also permaculture)

The practice of including trees in crop- or animal-production agroecosystems.
