The growth and metabolism of plants, especially on acidic soils, largely depend the concentration cobalt (Co) in soil, i.e. rhizosphere. An optimal supply is essential for N2 fixation Rhizobium bacteria that are symbiotic relationships with leguminous influencing their better supplying them nitrogen. When there a lack Co plant, organic production legumes falls. Indirectly or directly, also affects other metabolic processes plants. aim work was to analyze importance provision forage obtaining high quality yields seeds.
