During establishment I would plant alot of extra Nitrogen-fixers between the trees , maybe every 5ft. And then kill then as the regulard plants need more space.

I wanted to dry farm them, but it was failing in my climate. I decided to set up an irrigation system to help the trees establish themselves. Trees do grow in my area, but they need solid help in first few, most difficult years.
Then I decided that if I'm already irrigating then why not to try species that I would not normally consider, so I added plums and sour cherries and planted them within existing rows, but with 5 m spacing.
