Tree Crops

Tree crops are agricultural plants that grow as trees and are specifically cultivated for their produce. Examples include fruits (like apples and oranges), nuts (such as almonds and walnuts), and other products like rubber or timber. They play a significant role in sustainable agriculture, as they can improve soil health, provide habitats for wildlife, and contribute to carbon sequestration. Unlike traditional crops that are replanted annually, tree crops can offer long-term yields over several years, making them a valuable and often resilient part of farming ecosystems.
