If you want a grass strip , it needs to be 100% grass. In a windy area the wind will pick up the soil up wind of your plants and deposit it on the other side. You end up with a bumpy strip. No grass at all with the help of roundup works well , the strip needs to be elevated so that after rain no water stays on the strip.
If you go with grass be prepared to mow regularly, use a low growing species; definitely not Lucerne.
