Thanks Fernando! This is it! Actually, its even "agrosilvopastoralism" (finally found it in one of Cambridge Uni's journals). Talk about a mouthful of a word!!! Oh well, live and learn! :) 4 KudoZ points were awarded for this answer

Explanation: The 'silvo' part is the prefix meaning 'to do with forests/woodlands' from the Latin sylvus = a wood. Also cf. the Portuguese silvicultura = commercial forestry.

As for the hyphen, again FAO recommended word list says:
agro- compounds closed up except before vowel, e.g. agro-ecology, agro-ecosystem, agro-industry, agroforestry, agrometeorology, agrosilvicultural, agrosilvipastoral http://www.fao.org/docrep/004/ac339e/AC339E02.htm
This reference also adds a variation to my suggestions as "silvi" instead "silvo".
