More than 2,900 accessions of forage plants–including grasses, legumes, and forbs–have been tested at Davis and at Berkeley in a long-term research program. In 1950, 90 species and varieties were planted which have never before been tried in California. These included 40 strains of subterranean clover.

The above progress report is based on Research Project No. 1194.
