Summary: Research suggests that the traditional native orchards materialize a highly complex productive system, which requires a wide input of local agricultural knowledge and practices for its maintenance. In addition, many plant resources depend directly on human management in these agroecosystems to persist. In this sense, this study has as main objective to provide the valorization and the preservation of this knowledge on the forms of use and management of the plants that have been, over time, accumulated, selected and used by countless generations.
