In the ICRAF definition of agroforestry, the intergration of trees and shrubs in the land-use system can be either in a spatial arrangement, e.g. trees growing in a field at the same time as the crop, or in the time sequence, e.g. shrubs grown on a fallow for restoration of soil fertility. Sometimes the phrase woody perennials is used instead of trees and shrubs. Of course, woody perennials include all trees and shrubs with a lifespan of more than a year, but they also cover bamboos and palms.Normally, the trees and shrubs interact both economically and ecologically with the crops or livestock. These interactions should, of course, have a positive effects if the agroforestry is to be beneficial to farmers. ";
