The Lundar Sod Seeding Project run by the Lundar Agricultural Society with Manitoba Agriculture and Agriculture Canada shows alfalfa seeded into native or depleted forage can double yield and quality in some cases. Over five years 15 plots were established with local producers, using alfalfa and birdsfoot trefoil, noting moisture and placement as key factors and suggesting inexpensive drills can work with proper timing.
