Resumen
Descripción
The agroforestry systems established in the Acre region are composed mainly of perennial plants such as peach palm (Bactris gasipaes), cupuaçu (Theobroma grandiflorum), coffee (Coffea arabica cv. Catuai), acai (Euterpe oleracea) and Brazil-nut (Bertholletia excelsa). In the first years of establishment of these systems, annual crops such as beans, rice and corn are intercropped between the lines of the perennial crops. This procedure increases the diversity of plant species in this agroescosystem, makes it possible to expect that an integration of some stable properties of natural communities takes place, particularly an increased diversity of insect species, resulting in a decrease of the level of infestation of pests.
