Resumen
The study explores warm-season legumes suitable for Florida and the US Gulf Coast. Seeded options like cowpea, soybean, and pigeonpea provide cost-effective and nutritious forage. Cowpea turns yellow when ready for harvest, soybean at stage R6, and pigeonpea during pod setting. Additionally, annual cultivated peanut is another viable option. Forage yield and nutrient composition were studied over three years, with cowpea, forage soybean, and pigeonpea showing promising results. The full publication provides further details. First published in January 2011.
