Tree lucerne is a fodder food for farm animals. It grows as a shrub or small tree and can reach a height and crown diameter of about 5m, often with long, drooping, leafy branches. This legume, belonging to the family Fabaceae, has been variously called 'tree lucerne', 'false tree lucerne' and 'lucerne tree'. Even it has been around for hundreds of years, it only won popularity in South Africa recently. Once established, your animals can feed all year round on this shrub which has about the same nutritional value as conventional lucerne.
