In this paper we argue that, rather than being detrimental, tropical forage legumes can have a positive impact on the environment, mainly due to key attributes that characterize the Leguminosae (Fabaceae) family: (1) symbiotic nitrogen fixation; (2) high nutritive value; (3) deep-reaching tap-root system; (4) wide taxonomic and genetic diversity; and (5) presence of particular secondary metabolites. Although there are also potential negative aspects, such as soil acidification and the risks of introduced legumes becoming invasive weeds, we submit that legumes have potential to contribute significantly to sustainable intensification of livestock production in the tropics, along with the provision of ecosystem services. To further assess, document and realize this potential, research for development needs in a range of areas are indicated. Keywords: Biodiversity, ecosystem services, GHG emissions, land rehabilitation, soil enhancement, symbiotic nitrogen fixation. Resumen La producción ganadera de rumiantes en el trópico, especialmente cuando es basada en pasturas, frecuentemente es considerada como perjudicial para el medio ambiente, ya que supuestamente contribuye con: (1) la degradación y destrucción de ecosistemas, incluyendo la pérdida de suelo, agua y biodiversidad; y (2) el cambio climático (calentamiento global). En el artículo se exponen argumentos para mostrar que, en lugar de ser perjudiciales, las leguminosas forrajeras tropicales pueden impactar positivamente en el medio ambiente, principalmente debido a sus atributos clave que son característicos de la familia de las Leguminosae (Fabaceae): (1) fijación simbiótica de nitrógeno; (2) alto valor nutritivo; (3) sistema de raíz pivotante profundo; (4) amplia diversidad taxonómica y genética; y (5) presencia de metabolitos secundarios particulares. Aunque se deben reconocer aspectos negativos como la contribución potencial a la acidificación del suelo y el riesgo de convertirse en malezas invasoras, concluimos que las leguminosas forrajeras tienen un potencial significativo para contribuir a la intensificación sostenible de la producción ganadera en el trópico, junto con la prestación de servicios ecosistémicos. Sugerimos una serie de áreas donde se requiere de investigación para evaluar más a fondo, documentar y realizar este potencial. Palabras clave: Biodiversidad, emisiones de GEI, fijación simbiótica de nitrógeno, mejoramiento del suelo, rehabilitación de tierras, servicios ecosistémicos. ___________ Correspondence: Rainer Schultze-Kraft, International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT), Apartado Aéreo 6713, Cali, Colombia.

  • Environmental Adaptation of Forages in Lao PDR
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE THIRD REGIONAL MEETING OF THE FSP Environmental adaptation of forages in Lao PDR Phonepaseuth Phengsavanh1 and Viengsavanh Phimphachanhvongsod2 In Lao PDR, livestock production is almost totally a smallholder farming practice and is a vital component of livelihood security. Animals generally graze on native forages (grasses, shrubs, legumes, and tree leaves) that are available in forests and grasslands. However, native grass is abundant only during the wet season. Dry season feed shortages are common, resulting in severe animal feeding problems for farmers throughout the country. There are currently few, if any, alternative feed sources. For many years, some Hmong farmers, who live on the fertile highland soils in Luang Phabang and Xieng Khouang, have fed grazing animals Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum) as a supplement. Some farmers in Xieng Khouang have recently started to use Ruzi grass (Brachiaria ruziziensis) for the same purpose. However, in general, very few farmers in Lao PDR plant forages. This does not mean that there is no demand. The severity of feed resource limitations in some provinces (especially Luang Phabang and Xieng Khouang) is creating a huge interest in planted forages among farmers. To meet this demand, the Department of Livestock and Fisheries, in collaboration with the Forages for Smallholders Project, established forage nurseries at five different agro-ecological sites in four provinces to evaluate forage adaptation for subsequent on- farm testing at Namsuang (Vientiane municipality), Houakhoth and Houaphai (Luang Phabang), Ban Km 32 (Oudomxay), and Khinak (Champassak). Site descriptions The soil pH (1:5 water) at these sites varied from very acid to neutral (Table 1).

  • Urochloa Subquadripara (Poaceae: Paniceae) New to Texas and a Key to Urochloa of Texas

(8 April) UROCHLOA SUBQUADRIPARA (POACEAE: PANICEAE) NEW TO TEXAS AND A KEY TO UROCHLOA OF TEXAS Stephan L. Hatch S.M. Tracy Herbarium (TAES) Department of Ecosystem Science and Management Texas A&M University College Station, TX 77843-2138, U.S.A. [email protected] ABSTRACT Urochloa subquadripara is reported as introduced into Texas. A key to separate the 13 species of Urochloa in Texas is presented along with an image of the newly reported species. KEY WORDS : Poaceae, Urochloa , Texas, introduced, invasive plant Urochloa P. Beauv. is primarily a grass genus of Old World origin. Thirteen of the estimated 100 species (Wipff & Thompson 2003) worldwide occur in Texas. This genus was separated from closely related or similar Paniceae by Wipff et al. in 1993. Urochloa (Wipff & Thompson 2003) is described as having terminal and axilliary panicle inflorescences with 2 to several spicate primary unilateral branches. Spikelets are solitary, paired, or in triplets and occur in 1–2 (4) rows per primary branch. With 2 florets per spikelet, the upper floret is fertile, indurate and rugose to verrucose, the lower floret sterile or staminate. A key to three Urochloa species was published by Wipff et al. (1993). Eight of the Texas taxa are introduced (five invasive) and five are native to North America. The introduced taxa are native to tropical or subtropical regions of the world and their points of introduction appear to be from the coast or south Texas and following a period of adaptation move inland and/or to the north.

The seasonality of forage production represents a limiting factor in the production of ruminants. The use of silages has been a solution for periods of low forage production, providing high quality food. This study was conducted to evaluate the fermentative characteristics and the chemical composition of silage of Urochloa brizantha cultivars with different levels of Campo Grande Stylosanthes.

De esta forma se establece una relación muy fuerte entre am- bos, planta-polinizador, y cuanto mayor es la especialización, tal como sucede en un gran número de especies de orquídeas y cactáceas entre otros grupos, ésta se torna más vulnerable ante cambios ambientales naturales o producidos por el hombre.
