Agroforestry is an agricultural system that incorporates planting and 
encouragement of trees on land where animals are raised or crops 
grown. Tree planting can aid farmers and lands stewards by mitigating 
soil erosion, sequestering water and  nutrients, providing wind 
breaks and microclimates, moderating extreme temperatures, and 
providing portential crop diversification.
