This study investigated the effects of four plant extracts on agronomic performance mung bean ( Vigna radiata ) during 2020 growing season at two sites in northern highlands Tanzania, namely Miwaleni and TARI Selian, located Kilimanjaro Arusha regions, respectively. The tested included Tephrosia vogelii, Clutia abyssinica, Clausena anisata , Lobelia giberroa using a randomized complete block design with replications. Extract concentrations ranged from 0 to 10,000 mg, variety “ Imara ” being used. results indicated that site significantly outperformed SARI Selian grain yield, 762 279 kg ha −1 height, 59.6 58.6 cm, Notably, L. gibelloa produced highest yield 583.6 p = 0.011) greater than C.
