- Observation Sole cropping gave higher yields in both cropping systems.
- Association A tree density of 50 per hectare gave higher crop yields among densities.
- Intervention effect Agroforestry increased soil organic matter, available phosphorus and potassium relative to sole cropping.
- Association Ailanthus growth was similar across tree densities and crop associations.
- Observation Maximum Ailanthus breast-height girth was 47.10 cm at 200 trees per hectare with cluster bean and wheat.
- Observation The two-year experiment found maximum benefits under agroforestry with 200 trees per hectare.
