Ladino Clover Trialed In Clare County Fields
Visitors observed healthy ladino clover stands on the farms of Donald Holbrook and Ernest Barnes. Ladino favors heavy soils with organic matter and moisture. it tolerates wet conditions better than alfalfa but struggles when soils are too wet. A limited seed addition is advised to gauge local adaptation. SCS's Mr Basel mapped soil capabilities on several farms to inform fall farm plots. Mort Shea praises a self-shaped waterway in his wheat field that resolved prior drainage and prevented drownouts.
