Reviewer 2 Report

The MS has improved since last evaluation. 
However, it still has some issues in formating.

The figure 1 is taken from the authors own already published article. Then it must be cited in the text.

Is the data from "Edible forest gardens experiences" section come from this manuscript or it is a compilation from Eksvärd et al 2016 and Björklund et al. 2019 results?

Suggestions are given in the text.

Round 2

Reviewer 2 Report

The MS presentation quality has improved.

This manuscript is a resubmission of an earlier submission. The following is a list of the peer review reports and author responses from that submission.


Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

The work is poor. It does not present figures, tables, graphs, maps ... The conclusions are not supported by data or series of data.

With regret I must reject the paper.

Reviewer 2 Report

The manuscript deals with a very interesting topic with growing popularity in both science and general population. The agroforestry systems are vital for sustainable agriculture and informations provided in Sweden with this MS could generate data for further discussion of agroforestry systems fortress and weakness around the world.

The MS content is well organized and full of important informations concerning the current project conducted by the authors. 

However, this MS does not follow the journal style standard for citation in the text and reference list.

Some words in the text are in different font size and there are "too many space" between words.

I suggest that a complete revision in the MS style must be done. 

Reviewer 3 Report

Very interessant article. It would be enlightening to have some more details about  particular results that have allowed the conclsions presented.
