I'm doing that too. However, the weather is (still) not cooperating. Planting forage greens and perimeter fruit trees in the meantime. Will start with veggies when the first rains come.

I'm looking for supplier/seller of Fire Trees and Acacia Trees. There used to be a lot of them in Sulit. But now that it's bought by OLX, I dont see them posting ads now.

Any suggestion where I can find or contact them?

Thanks.

I think Dupay Seeds have them. Check in Facebook.

BTW, those trees take time to grow and mature.

Is ipil-ipil an ideal perimeter tree? it is rich in nitrogen being leguminous

Yup, dried ipil-ipil leaves can be mixed with dry feed for livestock or as compost component. Mature wood can be used as indigenous materials around the farm.

A portion of my perimeter is planted with two rows of ipil-ipil.

You can also use kakawate. Leaves can be used as herbage for big and small ruminants, while the tree trunks can be used as live fencing material.
