The use of economic analysis techniques on agroforestry systems is important to support decisionmakers. Therefore, we tested a differential equation model to analyze the economic viability of an agroforestry system (AFS). Thus, the objective of the present study was to verify the occurrence of is any influence of the intermediary income in an agricultural crop in the rotation period of the tree crop in two planning scenarios: a single cut and several cut, which provide the renovation or replacement after the cutting of tall trees. We concluded that, for a planning scenario of one cut, variations in crop revenues will not affect the rotation age. However, variations in farm revenue will lead to inversely proportional variations on the rotation age when a planning scenario with several cuts is implemented. In other words, due to the profit from agricultural cultivation, it is economically feasible to anticipate the cutting of wood and carry out the reform of planting.
