Abstract

The work was conducted at the Estação Experimental de Brotas, State of São Paulo. The aim was to evaluate several entries of Neonotonia wightii (Wight e Arn.) Lackey (perennial-soybean) and Centrosema pubescens Benth (centro). Good ecological behavior and desirable forage characteristics were investigated to select proinising accessions for that locality. The accessions were tested under two levels of fertilization. The results showed that the centro have better adaptation than perennial-soybean under the conditions of Brotas. Significant effects of fertilization were observed in dry matter production annual of both species. The blooming of both species varied depending on the accession, the perennial-soybean began at the first of April, and centro at the second half of April. It€™s recommended that more detailed studies should be carried out with the accessions that stood out: perennial-soybean NO 254, NO 409 and centro NO 235, NO 2237.
