If you are a real crop farmer, trees are just weeds. ;)
Having said that, a patch of woods is great, and can be used for firewood or nature and if you can afford it then enjoy it.
But, several patches scattered through out an area, that is a real mess, a real burden on any sort of crop farming.
Square fields are so much nicer. And tree borders, you realize you lose about 4-6 rows all the way along the trees, so with long meandering tree patches you are really short changing the crop land.

Enjoy your land as you see fit, as you can afford. ;)
