The genus Leucaena is a fast growing tropical legume and a member of the family Leguminosae and of the sub-family Mimosoideae. Leucaena is native to Central America. Spaniards took them from Mexico to the Philippines. From there it spread to entire Southeast Asia, Papua New Guinea, and later to Hawaii, Australia, India and even to Africa[(10)].

Biology and Fertility of Soils, 1988
The N uptake of maize was assessed on an Alfisol in a sole crop and in an alley cropping system in southwestern Nigeria. Although the application of prunings increased the maize N content in both sole and alley-cropped maize, the N contributed to the maize by the prunings was low, ranging between 4.4 and 23.8 kg ha−1.

The ubiquitous weedy form of Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit is capable of producing 1,000-2,000 kg/ha/yr of good quality protein. Its production capacity responds to elevation, rainfall, and soil type in addition to imposed management practices. The cultivars 'El Salvador' and 'Peru' produce 1,000-4,000 kg/ha/yr under similar treatments.

A survey of the leucaena toxicity status in four major goat-producing provinces of Thailand where leucaena is fed as the principal dietary component was conducted. Three adjacent dairy farms in one province where leucaena silage was being fed were also sampled.

Leucaena leucocephala toxicity in Brazilian horses
ToxiconLeucaena leucocephala poisoning is reported in horses in different Brazilian regions. The poisoning occurred one month after the horses were introduced into paddocks invaded by the plant or after 10 days of consuming cut Leucaena administered as the only food.

Leucaena toxicosis and its control in ruminants
Journal of Animal Science, 1995Leucaena (Leucaena spp., especially L. leucocephala) is an arboreal, tropical legume that ranges into the cool subtropics and equatorial elevations up to 1,000 m. One of its uses includes forage for livestock, but introduction of leucaena outside its indigenous range often has led to acute and chronic toxicosis. The major toxic constituents of leucaena

Palatability of Leucaena to ruminants
1998The palatability of up to 27 Leucaena accessions was evaluated in four trials in Australia, Philippines and Honduras. In Australia, 21 Leucaena accessions and one accession each of Calliandra calothyrsus, Sesbania sesban and Gliricidia sepium were grazed by cattle.
