Full description
In southern Australian mixed farming systems, there are many opportunities for pasture improvement. The Dryland Legume Pasture Systems (DLPS) project aims to boost profit and reduce risk in medium and low rainfall areas by developing pasture legumes that benefit animal and crop production systems. A component of the DLPS project aims to quantify the impacts of different pasturelegume species on livestock production and health. Included are widely grown legumes (strand medics and vetch) and legumes
with reasonable prospects of commercialisation (trigonella).
A five-year grazing system trial was established at the Minnipa Agricultural Centre (MAC) in 2018. It is the main livestock field site
for the DLPS program in southern Australia.
