Centrosema: Biology, Agronomy, and Utilization<br />

<strong>1990</strong>. Available second semester <strong>1990</strong>.<br />

In tropical regions, <strong>the</strong> cattle industry is expanding onto marginal<br />

lands, creating a demand for tropical legumes that can adapt to, and<br />

help improve, low-fertility soils. The genus Centrosema contains<br />

many species that have agronomic potential for such soils. The first<br />

twelve chapters describe <strong>the</strong> biology <strong>of</strong> Centrosema. The next ten<br />

chapters describe agronomic research on <strong>the</strong> genus in various<br />

tropical regions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> world, and <strong>the</strong> lastchapter makes recommendations<br />

for future research.<br />
