Intercropping medicinal plants under cherry timber trees - Understory planting to improve productivity of plantations

Why combine Melissa officinalis L. with cherry trees?

Melissa officinalis L. (commonly known as lemon balm in English) is used to supply rosmarinic acid to the pharmaceutical sector. Melissa officinalis L., like many medicinal plants, is well adapted to partial shading. Cherry trees are a high value timber tree with good economic return. They generate little shade compared with other trees.

Featured Farm of the day

Innovative business concept of an organic farm with agroforestry system – Biolandhof Braun, Freising, Germany

The Biolandhof Braun is a much-diversified organic farm with 58 ha of arable land, 17 ha of permanent grassland and some forest. In 1988, the conversion to organic farming took place with the aim of respecting and preserving the environment and resources as well as creation. The interest in closing nutrient cycles lead him via forest garden systems and permaculture to agroforestry.
