This book provides a series of technical agronomic and silvicultural recommendations, both to increase crop productivity and incorporate the management of trees or shrubs in the coffee farming plantations. The book focuses on Costa Rica’s Central Valley but its content has also regional application. Through this book agro-forestry alternatives for a profitable, sustainable, and bio-diverse coffee farming plantation are provided. It is guided towards the creation of models that allow transference of technologies for the planting and management of fruit, ornamental and timber trees and shrubs, whether in blocks, lines, boundaries, mixed and protected areas of coffee plantations. It also restores other traditional forms of association of trees and shrubs with coffee, such as the incorporation of fruit trees, ornamentals, traditional medicinal plants, crops and food for wildlife.
