[QUOTE="bgm, post: 378507, member: 1754"] As I'm sure your aware, but I'll say in case of the possiblity some might not be: Inoculants do much more than protect the seed or plant. They infect the legume and form nodules in the root system. It forms a symbiotic relationship that is beneficial to the soil and the host plant. It's where the nitrogen is fixated to the soil. Each type of legume needs a specific inoculant. My county extension agent advised me that if you haven't had the particular legume on your pasture in the past 5 years, you should inoculate before planting. Here is some links to a couple of good articles concerning inoculation and it's benefits.
