Abstract
Abstract The effects of inoculation level, seed pelleting, and broadcast lime on the establishment and growth of white clover ( Trifolium repens ) oversown on an acid (pH 4.8) high country yellow‐brown earth were investigated. When inoculated seed was effectively pelleted with lime there was no significant effect of broadcast lime on the percentage of healthy seedlings, percentage cover, or clover dry matter, although there was an increase in the percentage nitrogen in the foliage. In contrast, broadcast lime increased all these parameters in the absence of pelleting.
