Abstract

                                The development of Sesbania speciosa in Madras State may be deemed as one of the most outstanding achievements in the field of agricultural development. In fact, the progress achieved was so remarkable that it now looks like a story from a fairy tale. The din of the work has subsided leaving behind it unalterable trails. It is now time to take stock of how the whole thing was achieved and executed. The present note gives a review.of the work.
