Red Clover Bland - is a very high yielding, high protein blend that is very vigorous in establishment and growth. Very good persistency and eelworm resistance ensure maximum output where it is used in short to medium term leys. Red Clover is usually used in 3 year leys where it’s yields over that period can average out at 13 tonnes of dry matter per hectare. Red Clover is assailed by eelworm and Sclerotinia (Clover Rot) so we select varieties that are more tolerant of these ailments and look to the benefit of a blend of top varieties for optimum performance. Red Clover varies from 16-18% protein so is fantastic for fattening animals but oestrogen levels mean care needs to be taken when grazing where fecundity is paramount. A long, penetrating tap root offers excellent drought tolerance, recovery of deeper soil minerals and nutrients and is an excellent soil conditioner. Seed Rate 3 to 5kg/acre
