Abstract
An experiment was conducted to identify plants suitable for low cost revegetation of soil slip scars after Cyclone Bola. Species of grasses (8), herbs (3) and legumes (13) were oversown onto slips without fertiliser, and evaluated for 3 years under normal hill country sheep/beef grazing. Grasslands Maku Lotus pedunculatus, Trifolium pratense and Lotus corniculutus all increased total herbage cover. L. pedunculatus provided 85% of the production obtained from pasture on surrounding uneroded land, and 6 times the production of unsown plots on slips. Keywords: Cyclone Bola, Lotus pedunculatus, Lotus corniculatus, revegetation, slips, Trifolium pratense
