Eucalyptus melliodora was planted with maize, beans, and sorghum, separately, on clean-weeded and unweeded plots. The results were so encouraging that further trials, intercropping trees with maize and beans, have been established: Eucalyptus camaldulensis, for fuel and poles; Leucaena leucocephala, for fuel and fodder; and Acacia albida, for fuel and fodder.
