Permakultura je svjesno oblikovanje i održavanje poljoprivredno produktivnih ekosustava te zauzima svoje mjesto i značajna je u suvremenoj poljoprivredi i tranziciji prema samoodrživosti. Obzirom na poljoprivrednu proizvodnju, permakultura se trudi dati praktična rješenja u proizvodnji hrane koja su vezana uz ekološku održivost promjenom socijalno - ekonomske slike svijeta uz promjenu kulture, pristupa tehnologiji i promjenu ekonomije. Kroz načela permakulture dolazi do integracije ljudi i krajolika, koji na održivi način osiguravaju hranu, energiju, sklonište i ostale materijalne i nematerijalne potrebe. Posao voćara se uvelike mijenja ako preuzme permakulturni svjetonazor od načina tehnologije uzgoja do plasmana proizvoda na tržište gdje se pored voća plasiraju i različiti drugi proizvodi. Koristi ostvarene ovakvim sustavima gospodarenja ne mogu se mjeriti s onima ostvarenima intenzivnim načinom uzgoja.; Permaculture is the conscious design and maintenance of agriculturally productive ecosystems. It takes its place and is significant in modern agriculture and in the transition to self-sustainability. With regards to agricultural production, permaculture strives to provide practical solutions in food production that are related to environmental sustainability by changing the socio - economic picture of the world. It acts by changes in culture, access to technologies and changes in the economy. Through the principles of permaculture, there is an integration of people and landscapes, which is a sustainable way that provides food, energy, shelter, and other tangible and intangible needs. The job of a fruit grower changes greatly if he takes a permaculture worldview from the mode of cultivation technology to the arrival of the product on the market where in addition to fruit it comes with different products. The benefits achieved by such systems cannot be measured with those achieved by intensive modern orchards.
