Why is alfalfa meal a fertilizer, but not clipped green leaves?

Why is alfalfa meal a fertilizer, but not clipped green leaves?

People will say that green leaves will take time to decompose. But so will alfalfa meal! So why is one fertilizer and the other not? Is it a simple function of surface area, and if ground well enough, green leaves can become fertilizer?
