Nutritive evaluation of Vagal (Albizia lebbeck) leaves was made using Tellichery bucks. The CP content in leaves was 22.9%. The average DM intake was 1.77 kg per 100 kg body weight. The DCP and TDN contents were 14.68 and 57.28% respectively. The results indicate that vagal is a palatable tree fodder and can form a maintenance ration for goats.
