Key Benefits & Uses
Nutritional Value: The leaves and tender branches are highly digestible for ruminants like cattle, goats, and sheep. They typically contain 20–30% crude protein (the bag specifies a high CP of 35%).
Soil Improvement: As a nitrogen-fixing legume, it significantly boosts soil fertility. Intercropping with maize can double yields without additional nitrogen fertilizer.
Other Uses: The wood is used for lightweight firewood or charcoal, and various parts have traditional medicinal applications.
