The possibilities for developing agroforestry for use in rural and urban areas of the United States is encouraging. It did function extensively at one time throughout North America (Carroll, 1973; Cronon, 1983; Russell, 1982), and refugia of such practices still exist today (e.g., see Campbell et al., 1991; Gold & Hanover, 1987; Schultz et al., 1995). Agroforestry is currently working effectively in many other developed (Burgess & Rosati, 2018; Gordon, Newman, & Coleman, 2018; Mead, 1995; Von Maydell, 1995) as well as developing (Hillbrand, Borelli, Conigliaro, & Olivier, 2017; Nair, 1989, 1993) countries. The political and social climate in the United States is rapidly changing, which is likely to allow the development of the new land use strategies that include agroforestry (Jose et al., 2018; Lovell et al., 2018; National Research Council, 1996; USDA, 2019). Opportunities for the development and application of domestic agroforestry practices can be separated into ecological, economic, and social components for discussion purposes; however, one needs to keep in mind that these components are interrelated, interlinked, and interactive.
