Crotalaria (C. ochroleuca G. Don.) as a green manure in maize–bean cropping systems in Uganda

Field Crops Research, 1999
Abstract Crotalaria ( C. ochroleuca G. Don.) used as a green manure may improve the productivity of maize–bean cropping systems in eastern Africa. To test this hypothesis, three field studies were conducted over three consecutive cropping seasons at Kawanda Agricultural Research Institute in Uganda.

Impact of a soil feeding termite, Cubitermes niokoloensis, on the symbiotic microflora associated with a fallow leguminous plant Crotalaria ochroleuca

Biology and Fertility of Soils, 2003
The influence of a soil-feeding termite nest (Cubitermes nikoloensis) on the development of a symbiotic microflora (rhizobia, arbuscular mycorrhizas) was tested in a pot experiment with a tropical legume (Crotalaria ochroleuca). Our results confirmed the role of soil-feeding termite nests as sites of high nutrient concentration, as a significantly ...

Feed intake, growth rate and digestibility coefficients of growing sheep fed hay supplemented with Crotalaria ochroleuca

Animal Feed Science and Technology, 1990
Abstract A study was carried out to determine the chemical composition of Crotalaria ochroleuca (“marejea”) at three stages of growth — pre-anthesis, anthesis and post-anthesis. A feeding trial was conducted to study the effect of “marejea” supplementation of low-quality Chloris gayana hay on the feed intake, growth rate and feed utilization of ...

Effects of replacing sunflower seed cake with Crotalaria ochroleuca hay on feed intake, digestibility and growth rate of grazing sheep

Small Ruminant Research, 1992
Sixteen Blackhead Persian sheep were fed four rations containing four levels of Crotalaria ochroleuca (“marejea”) hay at 0, 15, 30 and 45% and sunflower seed cake (SSC) at 0, 10, 20 and 30%, as a supplement to grazing 8 h/d. The four supplemental rations were 30% SSC (T1), 20% SSC+ 15% marejea (T2), 10% SSC+30% marejea (T2) and 45% marejea. In addition,

Antinutritional effects of Crotalaria ochroleuca (marejea) in animal feed supplements.

Veterinary and human toxicology, 1994
Antinutritional effects of Crotalaria ochroleuca (marejea) in animal feed supplements were studied in rats fed marejea supplemented rations. Six rations supplemented with 10, 30 or 50% marejea seed or leaf meals were tested for toxic effects compared with 1 control ration.
