Abstract
The study was conducted in irrigated plantation of Chichawatni, Pakistan to measure the effect of four leguminous species (Parkinsonia aculeata. Albizzia lebbek Leuceana leucocephala and Dalbergia sissoo) on the growth of fast growing species (Eucalyptus camaldulensis) Eight plants of E camaldulensis were replicated thrice in each treatment with a spacing of 2m x 3m. Plant height (m) and diametre at breast height (DBH) (cm) were measured annually from 1992 to 1998 Soil samples were analysed for pH, organic matter (OM) %, P, K, total soluble salts (TSS) % and soil saturation % Results indicated that the growth of E camaldulensis was highest in combination with Leuceana leucocephala and Dalhergia sissoo Soil factors had no effect on the growth of E. camaldulensis.
