Traditional homestead farming systems, known as ‘homegardens’ are multi-strata
agroforestry systems that include small-scale tree-, crop- and animal production
in close proximity to the homesteads. They are found in many countries, especially
in tropical and subtropical regions [1] where they are important in the daily
lives of people because they provide households’ needs in both rural and urban
areas [2].
