In places where it is not native (Australia), hedge lucerne should be inoculated before sowingErosion control:Used in alley cropping, hedge lucerne helps controlling soil erosion on steep slopes in the PhilippinesHealthy:Hedge lucerne is very adaptive and can grow under a wide range of temperatures (including frost conditions) and rainfall conditions . Hedge lucerne prefers neutral to alkaline clay or clay-loam soils but is also known to do better than Leucaena on acid infertile soils. It is also tolerant of sodic soils. Hedge lucerne is a very drought-tolerant legume. It withstands frost and fire since it can regrow from the crown. Hedge lucerne tolerates severe competition from grasses and herbs but disappears when overtopped by trees since it does not withstand shaded conditionsHigh Yield:Yields of hedge lucerne range from 7.6 t DM/ha in the humid tropics (2000 mm rainfall) to 2-2.4 t DM/ha in low rainfall (600-750 mm) areas in Northern Australia In a comparative study with various fodder legume trees and shrubs in Ghana, Desmanthus virgatus was among the low-yielding species and much less productive than Gliricidia sepium, Calliandra calothyrsus or Cajanus cajanGermination Method:To get better germination seeds must be treated in hot water at 80 degree C for 5 miniutes(boiling water removed from the flame and kept for 4 miniutes to attain 80 degree C Temparature).
