This paper examines the potential of cultivating fallows to fast-growing tree species as a means of sustaining fuelwood production in the humid parts of the tropics. A comparative analysis of self-propagated and cultivated fallows is made. The cultivated fallow tree studied is Gliricidia sepium (Jacq.). The results show that wood productivity can be sustained under relatively short fallow periods if carefully selected suitable species are adopted
