Introductory Agroforestry is a comprehensive and systematically organized textbook that provides a strong foundation in both forestry and agroforestry concepts. The book covers essential topics ranging from basic forestry principles, silviculture, forest classification, and Indian forest policies to practical aspects such as forest regeneration, mensuration, and tree measurement techniques. It further explores the core concepts of agroforestry, including system design, species selection, multipurpose tree species, and various agroforestry models suited to diverse ecological conditions. With a balanced integration of theoretical knowledge and practical applications, the book highlights the role of agroforestry in sustainable land use, environmental conservation, and rural livelihood enhancement. This book has been written with the objective of serving as a foundational text for undergraduate and postgraduate students in agriculture, forestry, and environmental sciences. It is also intended to be a useful reference for researchers, extension workers, policymakers, and farmers who are interested in adopting sustainable land-use practices.
