Clovers are fast growing biennials or short-lived perennials. They are a popular legume known for their high-quality protein and digestibility. Clovers are quick to establish and can provide complimentary forage availability when grasses are less productive. Primary uses include hay, silage and soil improvement – due in part to an ability to grow in a great range of soils, climates and fix nitrogen.

Some Legumes are a great option for pastures as they can be profitable, productive and persistent – while offering non-bloat certainty that provides piece of mind for livestock safety. Our line-up of non-bloat legumes includes Leo Birdsfoot Trefoil, Sainfoin and AC Oxley II Cicer Milkvetch.

Improved grass varieties are an important component in most hay and pasture stands. A well-adapted grass variety will add to the yield, quality and timing of forage production.

Annual forages provide quick establishment, soil improvement properties and high biomass yield over the course of one growing season. Annual production increases flexibility due to the short-term nature of the stand and can provide a compliment to perennial forages to extend the duration and quality of forage availability.
