摘要：

Agroforestry practices and the policies influencing development and adoption within the United States are reviewed, Agroforestry is defined as 'intensive land-management systems that optimize the benefits from biological interactions created when trees and/or shrubs are deliberately combined with crops and/or livestock'. The five agroforestry systems identified as having importance in the US are tree-agronomic crop systems (alley cropping and intercropping), riparian vegetative buffer strip systems, tree-animal systems (silvopasturing), forest/speciality crop systems (forest farming) and windbreak systems (shelterbelts). A lack of federal policy relating specifically to agroforestry exists, If agroforestry is to achieve its full potential in the United States, adequate financial, institutional and technical support for its development must be provided.
