Vicia noeana is mostly considered a component of wild floras mostly in Near East. Certain tests showed it has a potential for forage production. The aim of our research was its assessment for growing V. noeana as a forage crop in temperate environment, such as northern Balkans. The obtained results have confirmed that several accessions may have forage dry matter and forage dry matter crude protein yields. Such accessions may be an objective of breeding programmes and developing first V. noeana cultivars. They may provide contemporary cropping systems with a relatively short-season, quality and productive component, complementary to the traditional annual legume field crops, such as pea (Pisum sativum L.) and common vetch (V. sativa L.).
