Vegetable-Agroforestry System (VAF) is a viable farming system that integrates vegetables in tree-based systems, and vice-versa. The system offers better prospects and viable options for smallholder farmers because it increases farm productivity, economic profitability, nutrient use efficiency and environmental services.|

Soil types are classified as Adtuyon and Kidapawan clays, which are mostly well drained.|
Lantapan is relatively cool and humid with winds blowing northward direction. The hottest time of the year usually takes place during the months of November to April, while the coldest from May to October. Mountains of neighboring towns in the north protect Lantapan from cyclone storms.|
Lantapan has an average elevation of 600 m, which increases as one proceeds northwest to Mt. Kitanglad Range National Park (MKRNP) to a maximum of 2938 m. About 70% of the area has slopes greater than 10%.|

It has an agricultural-based economy. Up to the early 90s, 90% of the households have been dependent on smallholder farming. The most widely planted food crops are corn, coffee and sugarcane. Cabbage, potatoes and other vegetables are also expansively cultivated in the upper areas. However, this changed since two large corporations started banana production in the late 90s. It is estimated that about 60% of the total labor force of Lantapan are now employed in commercial agricultural enterprises|
Of the total area of 35465 hectares, 21215 hectares are classified as alienable and disposable lands (A&D), while 14250 hectares are public lands (forests). A&D are privately-held lands, while public lands have been delineated as forest areas for protection (MKRNP) and production areas (buffer zone). Existing forest use rights include Integrated Social Forestry (ISF) and Community-Based Forest Management (CBFM) certificates. There is also a Certificate of Ancestral Domain Claim (CADC).|
Majority of the farming communities are living below the average poverty line.

VAF system provides multiple benefits, including provision of micro-nutrients to the diet of rural communities, enhancement of on-farm agro-diversity and environmental sustainability. It also improves the provision of environmental services, particularly carbon sequestration that mitigates global warming. If properly integrated with vegetables, trees can
provide the following benefits:
• Improve farm’s productivity by serving as windbreaks and improving micro-climate;
• Increase the income of farmers due to agro-diversity;
• Maintain soil organic matters due to litter fall and decayed roots; and
• Reduce soil erosion as contour hedges, especially in sloping farms.
Based on the experiment results, the best VAF system can increase vegetable production from 20-100%.
