In general, technology performance evaluation in agroforestry includes
the assessment of three different aspects of the technologies:
- - the quantity and quality of products from technology components and of tradeoffs resulting from the combined production of crops, trees
and/or livestock.
- - the quality of service functions of the technology, i.e. their effectiveness
and efficiency. Such service functions may include soil fertility improvement,
soil erosion control, provision of shade, aesthetic functions,
marking of boundaries, fencing, improvement of microclimate, windbreaks,
weed suppression, or live staking for climbing plants.
-- socioeconomic costs and benefits of the technology (input/output relations,
opportunity costs, risk, tenure effects, division of labour, et al.).
