Agroforestry helps to provide farmers with an effective and efficient land management system that would bring about high farm yields and revenue in a balanced ecological environment. The agroforestry is defined as “Agroforestry is a collective name for land-use systems and practices where woody perennials (trees, shrubs, bamboos etc.) are deliberately integrated to create an agro-ecosystem with crops and /or animals on the same land management unit. The integration can either be in spatial mixture or in time sequence. There must be both ecological and economic interactions between the woody and non-woody components to qualify it as agroforestry” (Kumar, and Nair, 2004). Some of the agroforestry practices that were existing in this region are as follows:- Agrisilvicultural System, the tree species like, Dalbergia sissoo,Leucaena leucocephala, Syzygium cumini, Tectona grandis, Artocarpus heterophyllus, Azadirachta indica, Gmelina arborea, whereas agriculture crops grown together were Solanum tuberosum, Brassica nigra, Triticum aestivum, Pisum sativum, Zea mays, Oryza sativa and Lycopersicon esculentum. In Agrihorticultural system, the horticultural crops like Capsicum annuum, Solanum melongena, Lycopersicon esculentum and Zingiber officinale. The tree components like Mangifera indica, Carica papaya, Artocarpus heterophyllus,Psidium guajava, Syzygium cumini, were integrated. In Silvipastoral system, tree species like Dalbergia sissoo and Mangifera indica were observed, whereas the grass components were Cyperus scariosus and Cynodon dactylon. In Silvihorticultural system, tree component like Artocarpus heterophyllus, Azadirachta indica, Dalbergia sissoo, Gmelina arborea, Tectona grandis, whereas horticultural components like, Allium cepa, Zingiber officinale, Capsicum annuum, Solamum tuberosum were found.
