The results of the research on biological features, productivity, chemical composition and forage value of Galega orientalis Lam., variety Speranţa, are presented in this paper. The research was focused on the chemical composition and the nutritional value of Galega orientalis Lam., which is a non-traditional fodder plant for the Republic of Moldova, and on the fodder obtained from it. The dry matter of this plant contains 15-20% crude protein, 2.7-3.9% crude fat, 32.2-37.8% crude fibre, 7.3-8.8% ash and 30.6-39.5% nitrogen-free extract. The possibility of producing high quality hay and haylage of this plant under laboratory, semi-production and production conditions has been demonstrated.
