Pasturing Sweet Clover For Tender New Growth
Sweet clover is condemned when pastured lightly as it becomes woody and unpalatable. Keep stock on it so it stays at 9 to 10 inches tall to produce tender new shoots. If insufficient stock exists, mow for hay high enough to leave live buds for a new crop. Unlike alfalfa, it does not regrow from the crown after two years.
