Abstract

Field inoculation of Trigonella foenum–graecum (Fenugreek) resulted in taller plants with a higher seed yield and the plants were delayed in maturing. The seed had a higher crude protein content and a higher germ/husk index. There was little difference in response to inoculation between different varieties of Fenugreek.
