Sweet clover touted for pasture improvement in rough lands
The article urges sowing sweet clover on rough or rolling pastures along canyon banks and steep slopes where grasses have died. It argues that scattering the seeds this season yields good results and improves forage quality.
Seeding Sweet Clover For Better Pastures In Frost Affected Areas
Farmers are advised to spread sweet clover seed on thin pastures after frost and rain. The hull seed helps overcome hard seed with frost action. If terrain allows light disking and drilling 12 to 15 pounds per acre, grazing should be controlled until the new crop establishes. Poor pastures may improve by converting run down fields to crops and reseeding permanent pasture mixtures.
