Abstract/Contents:"Erosion is a worrying environmental problem in the Mediterranean basin, and effective systems of soil protection against erosive risks are in great demand. Six herbaceous species commonly used to restore Mediterranean soils (LLolium perenne, L. rigidum, Medicago sativa, Dactylis glomerata, Lotus corniculatus and Cynodon dactylon) were tested for their ability to establish themselves at different soil fertilization levels. Sewage sludge was used as fertilizer at four rates 0% (unfertilized soil), 7%, 15%, and 100% of the sludge. Lolium perenne, L. rigidum, and Dactylis glomerata were the most suitable species when sown in non fertilized soils and Cyndon dactylon was the only suitable species when sown in pure sludge. Maximum germination speed and germination rates of all species tested took place in soils fertilized at 7% and at 15%."
