description After a brief reminder of the importance of woody plants when assessing feed crops in livestock systems of the semiarid zones of Africa, a study on population structures of Afzelia africana (one of the most grazed species) was carried out based on variations in pasture pressure. The analysis of results distinguished three structure groups all characterized by a tendency of populations to regenerate. Technical methods of management are proposed to help sustain this endangered resource.
