The interplay of agriculture and trees, particularly the utilization of trees for agricultural purposes, is known as agroforestry. This includes farming in forests and along forest borders, tree-crop cultivation, including cocoa, coffee, rubber, and oil palm, as well as trees on farms and in agricultural landscapes. In fields where trees and crops are planted together, on farms where trees may offer fodder for cattle, fuel, food, shelter, or revenue from goods like lumber, and in landscapes, interactions between trees and other agricultural components may be significant (where agricultural and forest land uses combine in determining the provision of ecosystem services).
