Agroforestry Design. It is well known that the practice of mixing of trees, crops, and livestock has been in existence for millennia. The impetus for agroforestry practices lies in the harmonious existence of many species in natural forested ecosystems that yielded multiple products, and in the need for historical societies with rising populations to grow tree and food products on a limited land base. 1, record 2, English, - agroforestry%20design

Une autre forme très connue de graphique est celle du triangle. Dans ce cas, le titre semble se diriger vers un point d'équilibre, et toute rupture de ce point le poussera soit vers une hausse s'il y a rupture par le haut, soit vers une baisse s'il y a rupture vers le bas. Si le titre brise la ligne A-B, c'est un achat; s'il brise la ligne C-B, c'est une vente. Le point d'équilibre d'un triangle n'est qu'une pause temporaire dans le mouvement à long terme du titre. Le triangle n'est pas considéré comme le graphique le plus sûr. 3, record 8, French, - triangle
