During the first year of planting, more than 40% land remains unutilized thus an attempt should be made to utilize the field in effective manner. For this purpose, suitable leguminous or less competitive intercrops like cluster bean, groundnut, sesame, isabgol, corriander, cumin etc could be grown successfully in the interspaces under arid and semiarid condition that can generate additional income. Besides, the soil condition will also improve with leguminous crops. Second year onwards such crops may not be encouraged otherwise foliage yield and quality of the produce will be adversely affected.
