Participatory Tree Domestication (PTD)
Put simply PTD refers to:• the means communities select, propagate and manage
high-value indigenous fruit trees and medicinal plants and integrate them in the various farming systems,
• Species for domestication are mainly selected encompassing indigenous knowledge and genetic selection based on scientific principles
• A strong partnership is developed with scientists, civic authorities and private companies.
• PTD is a farmer driven and market lead process. It focuses on species farmers consume best with high potentials for local, regional and international markets

• Early fruiting and capture of desired traits are great incentive for adoption.
• Market of agroforestry products is being gradually developed with appropriate transformation and packaging methods.
• Indigenous fruit trees have high potentials to improve livelihood of local populations helping to achieve the MDGs (Poverty eradication, hunger reduction, improved of health and nutrition)
