- Inoculation of Forage Legumes
Also, properly nodulated legumes "fix" nitrogen (N); that is, they take N gas from the air and change it chemically so it can be used by legume plants to make protein and other components which contain N.Some of this fixed N becomes available to grasses.
- Growing Forage Legumes in Maine
These legumes are usually grown with grasses in pastures and hayfields because they improve the quality of the forage (especially by increasing the protein content) Alfalfa and contribute nitrogen (N) to grasses grown with them.

Attempts to reseed patchy stands usually are of alfalfa with another crop before reseeding back to alfalfa ( Alfalfa Production Handbook, 1987).
