Covering over four decades of research, Tropical Forage Legumes:

• Includes a detailed analysis of the forage germplasm available which is adapted to heavy clay soils
• Covers the evaluation of successful native and exotic forage legume species that have potential for Belizean soils, and the adaptation of a wide range of forages on Australian clay soils
• Explores the genetics of the most promising genera, Desmanthus and Stylosanthes, and looks at the results from countries where genotypes have been found both productive and persistent
• Makes recommendations for future research.
