exclusive legumes
Non-bloat and specialty use legumes should be utilized more in long-term sustainable forage systems. We have years of experience using legume blends to enhance grass pasture seedings or renovate worn out stands. Legumes are critical to pasture feed quality, drought tolerance and soil health.
Emarwan Red Clover
-
Versatile and productive multi-cut Red Clover
-
Excellent choice for high moisture and imperfectly drained sites
-
Excellent in low PH soils
-
Plant into alfalfa fields where winter or ponding has killed alfalfa
Aberlasting Clover

Hybrid of Kura Clover crossed with White Clover - Excellent soil armor as low growth with stolon and rhizome regrowth to make a living barrier for both weed control and moisture retention.
-
Stolons above and rhizomes below means a more resilient plant with a larger and deeper root system
-
Increased persistence from rhizomatous root system
-
Faster establishment than caucasian clover
-
More drought tolerant than white clover - maintained leaf water content for one week longer than white clover when without water
-
Excellent cold tolerance
-
Can withstand heavy grazing and recovers quicker than white clover
-
Nitrogen fixation comparable to white clover
PFS Brand Sainfoin
-
Bloat Safe Legume and excellent choice for use to help reduce alfalfa bloat in grazing systems
PFS Brand Cicer Milk Vetch
-
Long lived perennial Legume
-
Yield potential at 70% of Alfalfa
-
Great drought tolerance
-
Can be challenging to establish if not scarified (very high dormant seed count)
-
Hollow stems allow for excellent stockpile forage
Yellow Blossom Sweet Clover
-
Biennial forage legume valued for N-Fixation and enhancement of soil structure in organic systems as well as high forage yield. The variety Norgold is used as it was developed for lower coumarin levels under less than ideal harvest conditions.
