Abstract: Agroforestry and small scale farm forestry systems in Central America as forms of a potentially sustainable land use: Extended deforestation has caused severe ecological and wood supply problems in Central America. Examples of natural forest management, plantation forestry, tree lines, live fences, shade trees for cocoa and coffee and silvopastoral systems are presented from Costa Rica and Panama. Information and data highlight the important economical and ecological functions of timber trees as an integral part of farm economies as well as the presently wide and growing use of such trees
