Agri-silviculture system
In this system, crops are intercropped in the interspace of the trees. The food-grain
crops can be profitably be taken for up to four years of the plantation. Some shade-loving
crops like fodder and shallow-rooted crops can be cultivated economically,
beyond four years of plantation. Without compromising the tree population, wider
spacing can be adopted that will facilitate inter-cultural activity and bring
more sunshine to the intercrops.
