The paper reviews information on livestock production and the influence of soils and vegetation on agriculture in Ghana. A large amount of information on forage legumes has been generated, especially between the 1940s and 1960s, but research has since lapsed. The use of crop residues of food legumes for feed has also been studied. The author concludes that integrated research is needed and that the information available should be applied at farm level.
