Agroforestry is the intentional planting of trees and shrubs into crop and animal farming systems to create environmental, economic, and social benefits.

Combining the forestry and agricultural techniques, agroforestry focuses on the positive interactions between farming and forestry.

The many environmental benefits of this practice include increased biodiversity (variety of species), more resilient land, and reduced soil compaction.
