The species has diverse economic and environmental uses across many farming and pastoral communities in Africa. In some dryland areas in Africa for example, it is a very good source of dry season livestock fodder, because it produces highly nutritious foliage in large amounts all year round. Parts of the plant edible for livestock include, leaves, twigs and barks, and their nutirional value varies with season
