In the purpose of biodiversity conservation, climatic change resilience and tree planting. The obvious question that comes to mind is what are the benefits that people need and prefer to obtain from the trees that they plant? We execute agroforestry tree ‘domestication’ as a farmer-driven and market-led process, which matches the intraspecific diversity of locally important trees to the needs of subsistence, product markets, and agricultural environments.

Domestication provides needs of poor rural communities as further empowering smallholder farmers to develop superior cultivars of indigenous fruits and nut trees and to produce planting stock of leguminous trees and shrubs for soil fertility replenishment. It also encourages entrepreneurism in the processing of agricultural products as well as tree products, and stimulates the development of markets for agroforestry tree products, livelihoods, diet, health and income for a better future.

People continue to use indigenous tree species as long as they are available because these species: tend to be of higher quality; are known and respected by the users; are generally a common property resource; can be obtained without maintenance or cash payment; provide products that cannot be duplicated with fast growing species. Indeginous tree species are the cornerstone of a family’s survival strategy, are an extremely important step towards slowing the deforestation of the adaptability of species to an area’s climate, soils, topography, and land use conditions. There is a diverse range of ways that people exploit forests that is for: fuelwood, fodder, germs, medicine, fruit, building materials., honey, household items, land improvement and rituals; other species have social or cultural importance.
