Abstract
Sulla (Hedysarum coronarium L.) is deep rooted and drought resistant. This species native to the Mediterranean is effective in biological fixation of sloping land, and improving organo-mineral soil fertility and yields and protein value of cereals. It is a biennial or short-lived perennial with semi-erect to erect growth, height of 0.3–2 m, strongly rooted, with root depth exceeding 2 m and numerous secondary roots.
