Sesbania Green Manure – Nature's Nitrogen Factory

Overview

Sesbania species are among the most efficient nitrogen-fixing green manures available to modern agriculture. Through symbiosis with Azorhizobium caulinodans bacteria, sesbania plants can fix 80-200 kg of nitrogen per hectare in just 45-60 days of growth, making them an economical alternative to chemical fertilizers.

Details

The mechanism of nitrogen fixation in sesbania is unique among legumes. Sesbania rostrata forms nodules not only on roots but also on stems, allowing nitrogen fixation to continue even in flooded soils where root nodule activity is typically suppressed. This dual-nodulation trait makes sesbania invaluable for wetland rice systems.
