Regional experience with Centrosema: Perú, Bolivia and Ecuador

Studies on commercial Centrosema in Perú, Bolivia and Ecuador, where two hundred accessions have been tested, indicate C. acutifolium, C. macrocarpum and C. pubescens as the most promising materials, and to a lesser extent, C. brasilianum. While one C. macrocarpum accession and two C. pubescens accessions have been evaluated under grazing in association with grasses, no species has yet been comercialized. Centrosema is susceptible to leaf-eating insects and fungal diseases. The lack of a well-defined dry period can affect seed production. High soil-water saturation restricts dry matter production
