The objective of this research was to contribute to identification of forage trees and shrubs available in Butembo city. The inventory has revealed 30 forage lignous species usefull for local livestock, distributed between 19 botanical families, whose 18 shrubs (60%) and 12 trees (40%). The more identified family is Fabaceae represented by 8 species or 26,6% of samples (Acacia mollisima, Caesalpinia sp, Cajanus cajan, Calliandra calothyrsus, Erythrina abyssinica, Indigofera sp, Jacaranda mimosaefolia and Sesbania sesban), followed by Rosaceae with 3 species or 10% (Mespilus germanica, Rosa hybrida and Rubus idocus), then Myrtaceae with 2 species or 6,6% (Eucalyptus sp and Psidium guayava) and Solanaceae with 2 species or 6,6% (Datura deltel et Datura stramonium), finally 15 other families each one represented by 1 species or 3,3%: Agavaceae (Dracaena arborea), Anacardiaceae (Mangifera indica), Bignoniaceae (Markhamia lutea), Caprifoliaceae (Sambucus nigra), Combretaceae (Terminalia manthaly), Cupressaceae (Cupressus lusitanica), Euphorbiaceae (Manihot esculenta), Lauraceae (Persea americana), Malvaceae (Hibiscus sabdarifa), Meliaceae (Azadirichta indica), Moraceae (Morus nigra), Poaceae (Arundinaria alpina), Proteaceae (Grevillea robusta), Tiliaceae (Triumfeta cordifolia) and Verbenaceae (Lantana camara). The leaf is, among these shrubby specices edible organs, the more ingested organ by livestock (62% of species).

L’objectif de cette recherche était de contribuer à l’identification des arbres et arbustes fourragers disponibles en ville de Butembo. L’inventaire a révélé 30 espèces ligneuses fourragères utiles pour le bétail local, réparties en 19 familles botaniques, dont 18 arbustes (60%) et 12 arbres (40%). La famille la plus identifiée est celle des Fabaceae représentée par 8 espèces soit 26,6% des échantillons (Acacia mollisima, Caesalpinia sp, Cajanus cajan, Calliandra calothyrsus, Erythrina abyssinica, Indigofera sp, Jacaranda mimosaefolia et Sesbania sesban), suivie de celle des Rosaceae avec 3 espèces soit 10% (Mespilus germanica, Rosa hybrida et Rubus idocus), ensuite et celle des Myrtaceae avec 2 espèces soit 6,6% (Eucalyptus sp et Psidium guayava) et celle des Solanaceae avec 2 espèces soit 6,6% (Datura deltel et Datura stramonium), enfin 15 autres familles représentées par 1 espèce soit 3,3% chacune: Agavaceae (Dracaena arborea), Anacardiaceae (Mangifera indica), Bignoniaceae (Markhamia lutea), Caprifoliaceae (Sambucus nigra), Combretaceae (Terminalia manthaly), Cupressaceae (Cupressus lusitanica), Euphorbiaceae (Manihot esculenta), Lauraceae (Persea americana), Malvaceae (Hibiscus sabdarifa), Meliaceae (Azadirichta indica), Moraceae (Morus nigra), Poaceae (Arundinaria alpina), Proteaceae (Grevillea robusta), Tiliaceae (Triumfeta cordifolia) et Verbenaceae (Lantana camara). La feuille est, parmi les organes comestibles de ces espèces arbustives, l’organe le plus ingéré par le bétail (62% des espèces).
