Information on red clover:
Red Clover produces high yields of high quality protein feed. It has good summer growth with drought tolerance and little winter growth. Higher yields than white clover, it grows tall and is used primarily for silage production. It is a short lived perennial and will have a life of three to four years. Break crops of red clover are useful for improving soil fertility.
Silage:
Expect up to 12-14t DM/ha/year. In the establishment year allow full flowering before harvest to aid root development for optimum N fixation.
Normally 3-4 cuts per year at 6-8 week intervals from late May, after bud development but before flowering. Mower height no lower than 7cm. The crop should be wilted rapidly to 25-30% Dry matter. Leaf is prone to shatter so avoid excessive handling, advised not to use a conditioner mower.
Advised to use an inoculant or acid to improve the fermentation, there are no natural lactic acid bacteria on red clover. The companion grass should have lactic acid bacteria and will supply sugar for fermentation.
Grazing:
Works best under moderate stocking rate and rotations of 4 weeks. Graze to 6cm. Otherwise its persistence is reduced. Graze carefully to protect growing crowns. Avoid poaching. Watch for bloat,
introduce clover slowly, ensure livestock are fully fed when entering the field.
