Abstract

THE grass/legume compatibility between six grasses and three legumes were studied at Fashola State Farm in the derived savanna region of Western State of Nigeria. The highest herbage yields per hectare per annum were obtained from the mixed swards. The yields of legumes were smaller in the mixtures with the tall than in the short grasses. It was concluded that in this area, Stylosanthes gracillis was compatible with the elephant and Guinea grasses. Pueraria Phaseoloids was compatible with the Northern Gambia and the mulasses grasses, while the Centrosema pubescence combined well with the giant star grasses.
