Some 440 accessions of introduced and selected pasture, shade and crop species were evaluated for their adaptation to cracking clays soils (vertisols) in 21 field trials at 12 sites in north-west Queensland. On the Mitchell grass plains (rainfall 375-500 mm annually), Sesbania, Lespedeza, Macroptilium, Rhynchosia, Vigna, Clitoria, Cajanus and Macrotyloma were the most successful pasture legume genera, but their performance was inferior to that of native species. Cenchrus spp., the best grass, survived two years. No shade species survived in the field after establishing in a non-cracking potting soil. Forage and grain sorghums were well adapted and produced high yields in favourable rainfall seasons, although crops failed in low rainfall years. The pulseCyamopsis tetragonoloba (guar) was well adapted and resisted insects and birds which damaged other forage and grain crops. On the Blue grass-Browntop plains (rainfall 500-930 mm), Clitoria ternatea, Vigna radiata, Lablab purpureus, Macroptilium lathyroides, Macrotyloma uniflorum and Bothriochloa insculpta were most promising. The evaluation of a wider range of plants collected from tropical clay soils could be profitable, and a study of the effects of C. ternatea on animal performance is warranted. |
