A field experiment was conducted on a sandy loam soil at Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar, India, during the winter season of 1986/87 to study the faba bean production for forage grown in interspaces of 5-year old poplar trees planted at various spacings. Maximum green fodder and dry matter production was obtained when faba bean was grown in interspaces of poplar trees planted at 6x6 m2. Narrow tree spacings of 2x2 m2 adversely affected production of both green fodder and dry matter due to shading
