摘要：
The use of Leucaena species in African smallholder farming systems is reviewed. A wide range of Leucaena leucocephala cultivars from a wide range of seed sources have been in use, principally for soil fertility amelioration, fuelwood and fodder. With the recent invasion of the leucaena psyllid, lesser-known Leucaena species and provenances are currently bring evaluated in diverse eco-regions for adaptation and possible integration into African farming systems.
