The study investigated the effect of intercropping cereals (maize, sorghum and wheat) with forage legumes (lablab and clover), planting methods and manure application on cereal grain and fodder dry matter yield and fodder nutritive value. Data collected over a period of three years, indicated tha...

Parkia is a pantropical genus of about 30-40 tree legume species of considerable evolutionary, taxonomic, biological and economic improtance in Africa, Asia and South America. It has several uses, including fodder, food, medicine, green manure, fuel and timber. This paper reviews the scattered li...

Parkia biglobosa: A potential multipurpose fodder tree legume in West Africa
Determines the effect of management regimes (cutting frequency and height) on the coppicing ability, fodder production and nutritive value potentials of cultivated Parkia trees compared with Gliricidia. The study has shown that the tree has a potential as fodder for livestock as well as human foo...

Sixteen promising forage legume accessions (15 species) were selected from small plot observation trials for agronomic evaluation over three years in a subhumid zone of Uganda. Macrotyloma axillare (Archer) significantly out yielded all other accessions in terms of annual dry matter production bu...
