Squarrosum clover (annual) Squarrosum clover (coated, inoculated)

Annual forage leguminous plant used for different purposes: pasture, forage and hay production, green manure, seed production

• Can be cultivated alone or together with other grassland plants
• The green forage is very nutritive and palatable
• Easy adaptable to different types of soils
• Grows better on moist but not waterlogged soils
• Resistant to dry soils
• Frost tolerance below -10°C for several days

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 advantages of inoculated seeds:

• Rapid and safe establishment of the plant
• Plants have at their disposal high quantities of nitrogen fixed by the Rihizobia
• Saving in fertilization
• More productive plants
• High quality forage with maximum protein content in the plant
