Have you heard of syntropic agroforestry? Syntropic being the opposite of entropic, the idea is that plants can influence other plants. If the trees are never allowed to reach senescence (ie a state in which they are no longer growing) the whole system is constantly moving in & out of rapid growth.

In practical terms, you plant lots of productive trees with lots of support trees that are pruned regularly to keep them in their growth phase. Pruned materials are deposited on the surface as mulch providing carbon & nutrients to soil life. Fast growing trees such as eucalyptus are used to help send a strong hormonal signal into the soil after pruning. After pruning the roots are also self pruned by the tree, releasing a large amount of exudates for soil life.

The technique was developed in parallel with & separate to Permaculture techniques in south America. They are very much aligned but came from different roots. My syntropic rows are about 18 months old now & going great.
