Agroforestry is an ancient practice that involves cultivating trees, shrubs, and grasses alongside food and fruit crops. While the traditional methods have been in use for a long time, the scientific study of agroforestry is relatively new. Over the years, experience and research have demonstrated that agroforestry can produce both food and wood, while also conserving and rehabilitating ecosystems.

The book provides a comprehensive overview of agroforestry, covering ten chapters that delve into the history, concepts, systems classification, tree-crop interactions, planning and management, diagnosis and design, policy and projects, and propagation and management practices of multipurpose trees.
