Brachiaria species occupy about 300,000 hectares in Asia, the South Pacific, and Australia. In Asia and the South Pacific, they are the most widely grown pasture grasses in the humid and subhumid tropics; in Australia, the area to which they are adapted is relatively small, but within it, Brachia...

In the past, adoption of forage technologies has been poor. This paper considers the reasons for this low level of adoption and how the situation has changed in recent years. Experiences, mostly in south-east Asia and some in east Africa, have shown that participatory approaches in the developmen...

Widespread interest by researchers in the forage potential of Arachis species in Asia, Africa, and the Pacific is relatively recent. But there are a few instances where forage Arachis is being used by farmers for heavily grazed pastures or as a cover crop in fruit tree operations. Forage Arachis ...

Introduction of Stylosanthes species to south-east Asia commenced in 1949 and tended to follow the development of commercial cultivars in Australia. S. guianensis cultivars were introduced to humid and subhumid areas in Malaysia, Indonesia, southern Thailand, Philippines and China. S. humilis, S....
