Abstract

The Grains Research and Development Corporation is concerned with progressive decline in soil fertility in northern Australian cropping lands and supports research on developing ley legumes as a means of addressing this problem.
This paper details a range of activities, related to R & D on ley legumes, proposed by linkage committees from the cropping sector. Currently funded research in this area is also outlined.
