Why choose red clover?
Perfect for feed – Inkarnatka is a plant with high nutritional value that provides an abundant harvest of green fodder. It is valued in the production of fodder, thanks to its nutritional value and rapid growth, which makes it an excellent source of fodder for a catch crop.
Rapid growth – It is a plant that produces large yields in a short time. If you care about efficiency, red clover is a solution that allows for quick access to fresh greenery – after only 2-3 months from sowing.
Crop flexibility – Inkarnatka works great both for spring and autumn sowing. Thanks to this, you can adapt it to different cultivation cycles, depending on the needs of your farm.
How to sow red clover?
You can grow red clover in pure sowing or in mixtures with winter vetch and grasses. Depending on the purpose, the following sowing rates are used:
- For flowers: 10-15 kg/ha
- For the catch crop: 15-30 kg/ha
You harvest the crops depending on the sowing date – with autumn sowing, the harvest takes place in the second half of May, and with spring sowing – at the end of July or beginning of August. This makes inkarnatka the perfect solution if you want to get a harvest quickly.
Benefits for soil and environment
In addition to its fodder value, red clover also has a positive effect on soils. Its strong root system acts against erosion, retains water and improves soil structure. Inkarnatka helps regenerate the soil, improving its fertility and preparing it for subsequent crops.
When is red clover the best choice?
Inkarnatka will work well as a catch crop, for fodder, and also in organic farming, where its soil-regenerating properties are particularly valued. It is also a good solution in grass mixtures and used to improve soil quality on farms.
Red clover is a versatile plant that perfectly combines fodder functions with a positive impact on the environment. If you are looking for a plant that grows quickly, produces high yields and at the same time improves soil quality, inkarnatka will certainly not disappoint you.
