Description
Fodder galega (Galega orientalis Lam.) is an early maturing, very productive perennial forage legume that fixes atmospheric nitrogen. Unlike other legumes, pure stands of fodder galega provide stable yields of green feed and seeds and do not thin out between the years. The symbiotic potential of fodder galega to grow in mixtures with grasses can be exploited to produce ecologically safe forage and animal products.
