Woody Species Conservation, Management, and Its Socioeconomic Importance of Agroforestry Practice in Ethiopia

Table 1

Biodiversity dimensions in agroforestry practices in the tropics [38].

Agroforestry practices	Biodiversity issues
Shifting cultivation	(i) Fallows consist of multiple species; and biological diversity, in both inter- and intraspecies, is intense; (ii) Long decrepit periods of 15 to 20, a long time to protect wild species differences
Homegardens	(i) High associate- and intraspecies differing qualities including a number of natural product, feed and timber trees and bushes, nourishment crops, restorative, and other plants
Agroforests	(i) Maintain tall species differing qualities comparative to normal forests but ruled by a number of carefully overseen financially important tree species
Parkland agroforestry	(i) Naturally proliferated trees guarantee wide species differences
