Only that willows don't do leaves here in winter when you would need them most. They do help while growing.

G'day, I wonder how big an effect willows will have on lowering the water table and whether your land supports many trees that can evapotransirate water out of the ground. Keeping these water loving trees in a constant growth cycle by coppicing may help with drainage over the growing period and the leaf drop will add to SOM.
