Question

A farmer in a semi-arid region wants to combine tree cultivation with raising livestock on the same piece of land, allowing his goats and sheep to graze beneath the canopy of fodder and fruit trees planted in a planned arrangement, while the trees also provide shade and reduce soil erosion on the sloping land. Which agroforestry system best describes this combined arrangement of trees, pasture and grazing livestock?

Silvipasture deliberately combines trees, pasture or fodder grasses and livestock grazing on the same unit of land, providing shade, fodder and additional tree produce to the farmer while supporting animal husbandry, distinguishing it from alley cropping, which pairs trees with field crops rather than grazing livestock.
