Agroforestry aims to establish a symbiotic relationship between trees and crops, where both benefit from each other's presence.

While agroforestry can have many benefits, increased crop yields and quality are not a direct result of agroforestry practices.

Alley cropping involves planting trees or shrubs in rows or strips within crop fields, creating a microclimate that benefits both the trees and the crops.

Silvopasture is a system where trees and shrubs are integrated with livestock grazing, providing shade, shelter, and additional feed sources for the animals.

Windbreaks are rows of trees or shrubs planted perpendicular to the prevailing wind direction, primarily to reduce wind erosion and protect crops from wind damage.

Windbreaks are rows of trees or shrubs planted around the perimeter of a field or along field boundaries to reduce wind erosion and protect crops from wind damage.

Forest farming aims to establish a diverse forest ecosystem that provides a variety of products, including timber, non-timber forest products, and ecosystem services.

Aquasilviculture is an agroforestry system that integrates trees with aquaculture, where trees are planted around or within fish ponds or other aquatic environments.

Integrating trees into crop fields provides multiple benefits, including improved soil fertility, reduced water evaporation, enhanced biodiversity, and habitat for beneficial insects.

Contour farming is an agroforestry practice where trees or shrubs are planted along contours to reduce soil erosion, conserve water, and improve soil fertility.

Afforestation is the practice of planting trees or shrubs in degraded or marginal lands that were previously not forested.

Apiforestry is an agroforestry system that integrates trees with apiculture, where beehives are placed within or near trees to promote pollination and honey production.

Integrating trees into livestock grazing systems provides multiple benefits, including improved soil fertility, reduced water runoff and soil erosion, and enhanced biodiversity.

Urban forestry is the practice of planting and managing trees in urban or peri-urban areas to improve the environment and provide various benefits to urban residents.

Riparian buffer or streamside buffer is a strip of trees or shrubs planted along water bodies to protect water quality, reduce erosion, and provide habitat for wildlife.
