Can you get the legume innoculant for this? It will support the other plants with more nitrogen if you can.

I am trying Tagasaste this year as an supplemental animal feed.  I have purchased the seeds from Bountiful Gardens www.bountifulgardens.org (the seed catalog side of Ecology Action - the John Jeavons/How to Grow More Vegetables group).  Evidently it is a shrub that can be used for forage and it has a good tolerance for drought conditions.  People are using it in Australia.  Google it for more information.  I have also set aside garden space for velvet beans, millet and perhaps sorghum for cut and carry forage. Anyone who has experience in feeding small ruminants with a cut and carry system - please share ideas.
