LUCERNE is praised as a hardy long lived fodder plant suited to irrigated or rain fed regions. It yields 20 to 25 tons of green fodder per acre annually, supports soil renewal and wind erosion control, and is expanding from the north to Eyre and Murray Lands. Establishment requires firm seed beds, light covering, and careful seeding rates. autumn sowing is favored in many districts with 17 inches or more annual rain. Grazing management with topdressing and periodic rest prolongs stands and boosts milk and meat production.
