[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 7919301, member: 86168"] red, grown pure, cut x3, fine, several years ago now. today, we grow red clover dominant grass leys, and cut 5 times this year, hit the clover, so over seeded with 2.5kg/acre, but, plenty of white increasing, bales av 19% P. But red has a problem, v/wilt, so we are trying different clovers, l wouldn't like to grow a pure stand, think it would need something to keep it upright, but a dominant w clover ley works, also better to use a 'mix', even a small % of small leaf, to keep a tight sward, post cut, and no v/wilt. Came across an article about r/clover, oestrogen, and tupping sheep, which is bad, so we have been told. That research, was conducted in the 50/60's, nothing since, till now, which is suggesting it isn't a problem, but wait for conformation !!! [/QUOTE]
