Seeds of legumes and grasses have become increasingly important as planting materials to establish forages for animal production in the tropics and subtropics. Availability of high-quality seeds of adapted and productive forage species is essential for successful pasture establishment. However, s...

ILCA adheres to the CGIAR policy on germplasm distribution and provides germplasm from its active colleciton free of charge to any bonafide forage worker. The selection of germplasm, preparation and distribution methods in use by the Forage Genetic Resources Unit at ILCA are discused.

Looks into ILCA'S genebank which has a collection of over 9000 accessions of forage germplasm of grasses, legumes and browse. The majority of accessions are stored by conventional methods of seed storage confirming to international standards as far as possible. However, there are some species of ...

Forages are usually associated with grasslands, but they also occur and are used widely on roadsides, in fallow areas, and as crop residues. In temperate areas livestock is grazed on domesticated forages. In the tropics livestock use native grasslands (Africa, Australia), naturalized grasslands (...

Research at ILRI has shown the value of incorporating forages and fodder species into sustainable farming systems, but the lack of available seed of adapted forage materials remains a major constraint to their adoption by smallholder farmers. Technical knowledge, access to seed, and economic ince...
