Promising results show that in Vietnam, Taiwan, Indonesia and the Philippines there is vegetable-tree complementarity for certain combinations of plants at certain distances from each other. The author also touches on using vetiver grass to control termites in young cacao trees and using drip irrigation to enhance vegetable-tree complementarity.application/vnd.ms-powerpointen-USIn CopyrightSocial impactsLocal marketsWomenEnvironmental impactsGenderPovertyEconomic impactsAgroforestryAdoption of innovationsComplementarityValue chainsIncentivesWill vegetable yield increase when planted beside trees?Presentation
