Agroforestry: Systems and Practices

Despite extensive research having been conducted, it has not been widely accessible to the scientific community, farming communities, students, and readers. To address this, the authors have compiled information on agroforestry systems and practices in India into a single manuscript. The book is divided into four main sections: i) Agroforestry in India, ii) Agroforestry systems and practices in North, West, and Central India, iii) Agroforestry systems and practices in East, North-East, and Southern India, and iv) Allied topics related to Agroforestry. The first section covers agroforestry experiences, research, and extension efforts over the past 25 years in India. The second section includes 13 topics, while the third covers 14 topics that discuss agroforestry research in relation to the agroclimatic zones of different states in India. The last section contains 8 topics on topics such as the role of agroforestry in soil conservation, women's development, agroforestry management, modeling, rehabilitation of mine spoils, and agroforestry tree species breeding.
