Aina anuwai ya mimea inaweza kutumika kama malisho na mazao ya malisho katika nchi za hari. Kati ya hizi, chache ni muhimu sana kwa sababu ya kubadilika kwao, urahisi wa ukuaji, uwezo mkubwa wa mavuno, na thamani kubwa ya lishe. Zaidi ya hizi ni nyasi au jamii ya kunde. Nyasi nyingi hapa zinafaa sana kwa malisho ya kudumu, ingawa chache hukatwa na kupelekwa kwa wanyama. Kwa bahati mbaya, kuna mchanganyiko wa mikunde na nyasi ambao unalingana katika malisho ya nchi za hari; Walakini, tuna kunde kadhaa zinazofaa kwa malisho mchanganyiko na tuna hamu ya kusikia jinsi zinavyokua katika maeneo anuwai.
