Description
According to Schmidt and Ferguson classification, the climatic of Bali varies from climatic zone B to climatic zone F (Manik et al., 1977). The dryland farming area with climatic zone F has average annual rainfall of 1000 mm with 116 rainy days distributed during the 8 months dry and 4 months wet seasons (Nitis et al., 1987). Some grass and legume species could grow in dry land farming area with average annual rainfal as low as 300 - 700 mm (O'Reilly et al., 1987). The objective of this paper was to study the response of the grass and legume yields to the rain precipitation and rain distribution.
