Kunth ex Walp is a legume tree species categorized as a versatile plant due to its multi uses in many areas including agro-forestry, agriculture, animal husbandry, and pharmaceuticals. This paper presents the results of research on the herbicidal and pesticidal efficacies of gliricidia plant. The data were compiled by searching papers covering the relevance subjects that have been published in English that can be accessed through Google search engine. There were 36 papers that met the inclusion criteria consisting of 11 papers revealed herbicidal properties, 6 papers reporting nematicidal properties, and 19 papers presenting insecticidal properties of plant extract or residues of G. sepium. In addition to reporting its efficacy, several articles have reported the existence of the type and nature (stability) of the phytochemicals contained in this plant extract. Overall, gliricidia plant is rich in phytochemicals which are toxic to various living organisms, from microbes, plants to animals. It was also revealed the physical and organoleptic properties of this plant extract remained stable in storages for 2-3 years.
