Sweet Clover Proves Rich for Soils and Pastures
Raleigh reports sweet clover grows as a stellar pasture and soil improving crop across piedmont and western North Carolina. Tests claim 250 pounds per acre nitrogen in tops and roots after one spring, rivaling 25 tons of farm manure or 1,600 pounds of nitrate. Proper seed bed and liming, about one to two tons of finely ground lime per acre, yield best stands. Kentucky bulletins praise its value for pasture and soil enhancement with livestock carrying capacity rising. North Carolina growers D. J. Lybrook, Charlie Brown, and Bloan Brothers attest to success.
