	Coppicing is the practise of cutting live trees in their dormant season and allowing them to regrow from the stump.		Coppicing is the practise of cutting live trees in their dormant season and allowing them to regrow from the stump.

	Many woody plants resprout from the stump or root suckers when cut to the ground--we call the regrowth [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coppicing "coppice"], and the management system "coppicing". Many ancient cultures understood this plant behavior and managed coppice to produce their fuel, craft and building materials, livestock fodder, fencing, and much more. Any ag-based community should strongly consider this.

	Mark Krawczyk ([http://www.keylinevermont.com/ Keyline Vermont] and [http://www.rivenwoodcrafts.com Riven WoodCrafts]) and Dave Jacke ([http://www.edibleforestgardens.com/ Edible Forest Gardens]) have therefore decided to write "Coppice Agroforestry: Perennial Silviculture for the 21st Century." Coppice Agroforestry will serve as a detailed manual for foresters, farmers, craftspeople, and land managers describing the history, ecology, economics, design, and management of agroforestry systems based on the repeated harvest of small diameter wood products from resprouting tree stumps. Bridging ancient coppice traditions and cutting-edge agroecosystem design, Coppice Agroforestry will articulate a practical vision of forest management that integrates ecosystem health, economic viability, multi-generational tree crops, and diverse non-timber forest products.
