New Variety Annnuoal White Sweet Clover Gains Interest
Michigan Agricultural College professor J F Cox says the annual leguminous clover shows promise as a valuable crop for light soils in western and northern Michigan. The college and Michigan Crop Improvement Association planted six acres for seed and six for increase, making Michigan the leading seed supplier. Seed sold for $500 an ounce, with a large potential market, as the crop produces hay by July and seed by late August or early September. The crop could diversify rotations, provide green manure and pasture, and appeal to bee keepers statewide.
