Trifolium hybridum L.

A mid-late/late diploid alsike clover with exclusive persistent yielding

  • Tolerant to poorly drained soils
  • Excellent winter hardiness
  • Flood tolerance for 7-14 days
  • Fits shorter-term stands
  • Poor/moderate drought tolerance 
  • For hay and pastures
  • Average hay yield – 6-7 t/ha
  • Fast regrowth
  • Winters well, resistant to cold
  • Winter hardiness – excellent
  • Drought resistance – weak/moderate
  • Resistant to diseases
  • Nutritive value – very good
  • Matures and loses nutritive value later than red clover
  • Average seed – 100-500 kg/ha
  • Suitable for growing in moist, acidic, flooded and drained peat soils, optimal pH 5.7-7.0
  • Tolerance to soil acidity – medium
  • Tolerance to soil alkalinity – moderate/weak
  • Tolerance to flooding – medium/high
  • Suitable for grass mixes for less fertile soils
  • Well tolerates short-term (7-14 days) spring floods
  • More suitable for fodder production than grazing
  • Suitable for short-term grasslands
  • Cultivated for 2-3 years
  • Not recommended for horses
  • Suitable for green manure, fixes nitrogen

The advantages of coated seeds:

  • Allows more precisely to incorporate small size seeds with low sowing rate
  • Protect seed from mechanic stress caused by sowing machines
  • Protect seed from birds and insects - in fact coating components are not toxic but they don’t even attract them
  • The extra-resistance of the coating avoids dust leakage and dust accumulation in the sowing machine
  • Have less hard-seed content which means higher immediate germination percentage on the establishment of crop

The varietal parameters may differ from those indicated here when the testing circumstances differ from quondam


Recommended sowing rate: 10-12 kg/ha

Recommended sowing rate when growing for green manure: 12-14 kg/ha
