Species of Vicia and Lathyrus offer potential for developing annual forage legume crops for different cropping and end-use systems. Information is presented on an ICARDA research programme, the collection and evaluation of Vicia spp. and Lathyrus spp., and possibilities and limitations for the production of Vicia spp. and Lathyrus spp., including their use on marginal land.
