Popis:	Rhizobium inoculant products in North America are often prepared using non-sterile peat and may contain more contaminants than rhizobia. The effectiveness of sterile and non-sterile peat-based inoculants applied to alfalfa (Medicago sativa) seed using either traditional seed inoculation just before planting, or pre-inoculated and commercially coated, were evaluated for three years (eight harvests) at two sites in northwestern Alberta. Seeds inoculated just before planting had more rhizobia at planting time than pre-inoculated seed. When results from all the three years were combined, inoculation with Rhizobium, either seed-applied or pre-inoculated, significantly (P
