The USDA has a latge number of files that you can download on the topic of
agroforestry. They will also send you hard copies if you so request. Go to
the following link for topics agroforestry topics such as silvopasture, alley
cropping, windbreaks, living barns, riparian buffer strips, and forest
farming. These have been very helpful for me regarding the topic and many of
the ideas are a part of Permaculture design.

And remember to consider the mature heights of the trees and the root extent, especially if the inter-cropping is to be irrigated! I see so many plantings of inappropriate species... they are destined to be removed in 10-15 years to the overall detriment of the system they are intended to be part of.
