Complex agroforestry system is common practice in South Sulawesi where timber and fruit trees species are the two common species integrated into the system. In simple agroforestry, shade tree is the dominant integrated species in the system. Tree species planted by community in their land are totally different with forest species. However, tree species integrated among the simple and complex system is similar. Community tend to grow varies function of tree species as source of foods, materials building, fuels and marketed trees in complex agroforestry systems, but only for materials building and source of foods grow in the simple agroforestry systems.
