The study results showed that alfalfa responded to the lime applications of 3 and 6 t/ha by producing significantly higher dry matter yields. The higher of the two lime rates (6 t/ha) significantly increased alfalfa yield in the third year of plant life as well as over the whole period studied (2005/2006). Application of said lime rate also resulted in taller alfalfa plants and a larger number of internodes. Seed inoculation with Rhizobium meliloti with no lime application resulted in no significant increase in alfalfa yields on pseudogely. Use of higher lime rates (6 t/ha) on pseudogley in western Serbia produces higher alfalfa hay yields (30.5 t/ha), greater stand persistence, taller plants (61.5 cm) and larger internode number (13) and length.
