Leucaena as an Alternative Forage and Concentrate Substitute for Barbadian Dairy Goats

A project by Zachary Goldberg, Erik Hauner, and Natasha Salter for the BITS program of McGill University and the University of the West Indies. Leucaena is a high-protein legume growing wild throughout Barbados. Its use as a forage for dairy goats could reduce the use of expensive concentrate feed. As such, there is potential to reduce production costs as well as the dependence on foreign imports. But can leucaena support adequate milk yields and does it really reduce costs?
