Sesbania sesban, a tree native to Uganda, is prized for its fast growth and nitrogen fixing properties.  If farmed properly, this tree can provide immense amounts of fuel wood, even on very small pieces of land.  Just one year after planting a seed, the tree is over 15 feet tall and ready to be cut for firewood.  As a bonus, its root nodules fertilize surrounding crops.  Truly, an amazing tree.
