[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1796305, member: 16453"] A few years ago I tried a small patch of lucerne (alfalfa), I couldn't kill the stuff, it survived our big drought and while it looked dead it came up as strong as ever. I tried overseeding it with some strong summer growing grasses (Premier Digit) and absolutely none of the grass seed germinated. I think the terminolgy is "aliphatic effect" or something like that, it just would not let anything else grow. In the end I sprayed it out with Glyphosate before planting more grass seed. In another paddock I put in some with another seed mix but only at about 10% and all of them seemed to get on OK. The lucerne has been very persistant over many years. The only thing that has knocked it has been the waterlogged areas over the past year or two but I can still find it on the better drained areas. Ken [/QUOTE]
