摘要: SUMMARY This review aims to summarize some of the studies in agroforestry systems Costa Rica from 1970s date. From mid 1980s, were characterized by a dominance association indigenous trees natural regeneration with coffee, cacao, and pastures. However, mid-1980s, number trials native species started Rica, which identified several promising for reforestation or (i.e., Vochysia ferruginea, V. guatemalensis, Terminalia amazonia, Hyeronima alchorneoides, others). In 1990s date, there has been diversification types used, an increase research on these taungya, improved fallows, multipurpose pastures, alley cropping, home gardens). Current not only focuses benefits systems, but it also proper combinations crops-trees attain more profitable yields avoid risk, high...
