Crotalaria, Malaysia

February 2008. An image was sent of a weed growing in the Cameron Highlands, Malaysia. It appears to be a useful animal feed. Is it safe for animals to eat?

It was identifed as Crotalaria (Rattle pod), but it is not clear enough to identify it to species. No poisonous members of the genus are known. It is not usually a forage crop, being a shrub.
