North American Agroforestry. Группа авторов

A better appreciation of the ecosystem and environmental services provided through agroforestry would lead to the development of rigorous environmental and economic assessments and eventually to modification of community tax structures and environmental legislation.

      The ecology of highly managed agroforestry systems is becoming better understood although much remains to be done. Two recent texts on the ecology of agroforestry systems (Batish, Kohli, Jose, & Singh, 2008; Jose & Gordon, 2008) present up‐to‐date research results on ecological interactions, belowground ecological processes, resource allocation and partitioning, and the modeling of these in both tropical and temperate agroforestry systems.

Acknowledgments

      We wish to sincerely thank and acknowledge and are indebted to R.K. Olson, M.M. Schoeneberger, and S.G. Aschmann for their contributions to parts of this chapter. We have reproduced verbatim or with slight modifications of their writings in the first edition of this chapter. Similarly, we are also indebted to Caron et al. (2008), as some portions in this chapter have been adapted from their publication.
