Irrigation has removed much of the risk associated with white clover seed production in an area of poorly distributed annual rainfall of 530 mm. Machine-dressed seed yields range between 540 and 900 kg/ha. The importance of minimizing harvesting losses is emphasized. Key words: Trifolium repens, seed production, irrigation.
