I hope the id is correct…!!
I also think this can be Medicago lupulina..!! Trifolium sp for id from Panipat-26032011-1: Medicago lupulina … Trifolium would have palmate compound leaves, all three leaflets of same stalk length. Here middle has much longer stalk, hence pinnate trifoliate. your guess was right, it is Trifolium campestre
