Berseem Clover is a cool-season annual that is native to the Mediterranean region. For thousands of years, it has been grown in the Nile Delta and, therefore, is also known as Egyptian Clover. It is a fast-growing legume that establishes quickly, often filling in bare spots where other cover crops fail to grow. It has a high salt tolerance, high nitrogen fixation rate, and an ability to form synergistic relationships with Alfalfa, Ryegrass and other cover crop species. Can be grown in a wide range of soils, including slightly acidic, neutral and alkaline. It tolerates poor drainage and brief periods of waterlogging. Performance is remarkably better than that of other clover species in wet, poorly drained soils. Berseem Clover is high-yielding, has great nutritional quality for livestock and wildlife, helps prevent soil erosion and creates habitat for beneficial insects. When temperatures exceed 15 degrees C, plantings are ready to cut after 60 days. Once established, cutting every 30 days encourages growth and increased Nitrogen production. Healthy stands of Berseem Clover can fix up to 200 lbs/acre (3.5 lbs/1000 sq. ft) of Nitrogen and up to 6500 lbs of biomass/acre. Fibrous roots also aid the plants inretrieving and retaining other nutrients within the soil profile. Non-GEO 250g covers approximately 1000 sq. ft1 kg covers approximately 4000 sq. ft FOR PLANTING PURPOSES ONLY. Seed should not be used as food or feed.
