Sainfoin: A Promising Yet Short-Lived Forage
Agriculture Canada notes sainfoin offers cattle bloat relief and preference over alfalfa but is shorter-lived and slower to recover after cutting. Melrose, the licensed variety, suits western hay and pasture on moist soils. In trials, dryland yields lag alfalfa by 10 to 30 percent, while irrigated yields match or exceed. Steers gained 2.5 pounds daily on irrigated sainfoin. regrowth favors standing stems, mowing helps weed control, and three-year irrigated pastures face weed and winter-survival limits.
