No. | Agroforestry types | Agricultural practices | Vegetation composition | Management activities |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Homegarden based agroforestry practices (HAFP). | No use of fertilizer, no grazing, selective cutting. | E. ventricosum, and trees species such as C. arabica, P. americana, M. indica, G. robusta, C. africana, and F. vasta covered > 75% of the land area and is dominated with dense number of different vegetables and herbs. | Pruning, thinning, weeding, composting, and application of organic manures. |
2 | Cropland based agroforestry practices (ClAFP). | High use of fertilizer, selective cutting, grazing after crop harvest. | Sparse types of trees species like P. americana, M. indica, C. africana, F. vasta and C. macrostachyus. | Pruning, grass mulch, application of inorganic fertilizers and weeding |
3 | Woodlot based agroforestry practices (WlAFP). | No of use fertilizer, grazing selective cutting. | Dense number of Eucalyptus species and tress like acacia species, C. macrostachyus, J. procera grows. | Pruning, thinning, coppicing, pollarding, and weeding. |
4 | Trees on soil and water conservation-based agroforestry practices (TSWAFP). | High use of fertilizer and grazing after crop harvest. | Sparse types of trees species such as C. macrostachyus, musa, V. auriculifera and herbs like grass species grow on physical SWC structures. | Pruning, grass mulch, application of inorganic fertilizers and weeding. |
