 The potential contribution of some forage crops to the nitrogen budget and animal feed in the Sudan Gezira farming ...
Forage crops (Dolichos lablab, Phaseolus trilobus, Clitoria ternata, Cajanus cajan, and Sorghum vulgare) were grown in monoculture or in a mixed crop with the legume and sorghum planted in the same hole.
Little NO -N was released in the sorghum and cajanus soils during the first 2 weeks of incubation, and rates of nitrification in these soils were lower throughout incubation than in the other soils.
It is therefore reasonable to believe that at least 50% of the N that was not recoverable as NO -N from the sorghum and cajanus plots may have been lost as gaseous N, resulting in nitrogen deficits of about 45 and 20 kg N/ha in the sorghum and cajanus plots, respectively.

 Cajanus cajan
Cajanus cajan is one of the most drought tolerant legume crops, with a wide range of rainfall tolerance, but prefers more than 625 mm and in elevated areas exceeding 2 000 m cold nights and cloudy weather interfere with fertilization of flowers.
For oversowing into natural pastures, von Schaaffhausen (1966) recommends sowing Cajanus in contour furrows 2 m apart into pangola grass pastures, using 20 to 30 seeds per hole.
If Cajanus is not frosted, it will stand over very well for winter and dry-season feeding.

 Performance of pullet chicks fed raw or processed pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan) seed meal diets
The major constraint towards increased animal protein supply in Nigeria has remained the exorbitant and ever-increasing cost of commercial poultry feeds arising mainly from the high cost of feedstuffs and ingredients, especially the conventional ones like cereal grains (maize, sorghum, wheat and millet), oil seed cakes (groundnut cake and soybean meal) and fish meal.
Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan) seeds are currently considered as a non-conventional feedstuff in poultry feeding and as a valuable protein feed resource (Preston 1987; Udedibie and Igwe 1989; Amaefule and Obioha 1998; Amaefule and Onwudike 2000).
The chemical and proximate composition of pigeon pea seeds are affected by such factors as cultivar, growth condition, soil and or geographical location (Salunkhe et al 1985).

 PIGEONPEA (Cajanus Cajan L. Millsp) AS A NICHE CROP FOR SMALL FARMERS: ADAPTABILITY, MARKETING AND OUTREACH   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
This proposal is planned and developed through collaborative effort between IAgER researchers, School of Agriculture faculty and small farm specialists working with the Cooperative Extension Program (CEP) at Tennessee State University (TSU).
Pigeonpea (Cajanus Cajan L. Millsp) is a warm season grain legume that may have potential as an alternative crop for small farmers in the South and the Southern Great Plains.
Other outcomes would include: enhanced collaboration among faculty members from different units to conduct multidisciplinary research and outreach, experiential learning opportunities for students, and possibility of increasing income of small farmers by introducing, generating and disseminating information on pigeonpea as an alternative crop.
