Pigeon pea is a perennial shrub with a deep root system which permits good growth under semi-arid conditions. From the chemical composition, pigeon pea contains rather high crude protein percentage that suitable for ruminant feeding so the utilization of pigeon pea as green fodder and leaf protein in concentrate ration was investigated. Data from plant growth in 50x50 sq. cm. and 100x100 sq. cm. spacing showed non significant difference in plant heights. For green fodder cutting, the plant cut at 90 days showed significant higher yield than those cut at 60 or 75 days in both 50x50 sq. cm. and cm-row spacings. The nutritive value of leaf and upper part was determined in TDN value. The TDN value was 67.80 %. Costs of green fodder and dry leaf production per rai (1600 sq. meter) were also determined. The plant from 50x50 sq. cm. spacing showed higher cost than 50 cm.-row spacing and the plant cut at 90 days showed the least cost of production per rai. Furthermore, the investigation also gave additional data on pigeon pea production for feeding purpose.
