Dolichos Ghaticus

Dolichos ghaticus is a lesser-known legume native to the arid regions of the Middle East and Central Asia. This hardy plant thrives in dry, sandy soils and is adapted to withstand extreme temperatures. It is often used as a forage crop for livestock due to its high nutritional value. The plant's long, slender pods contain edible seeds that are rich in protein. Despite its benefits, Dolichos ghaticus remains underappreciated in modern agriculture.
