Persian clover seed is a fast-growing annual or short-lived biennial legume valued for its high-quality forage production and excellent contribution to pasture systems. It is widely used in grazing operations due to its rapid establishment, strong seasonal growth, and ability to provide nutritious feed during cooler months and periods when other pastures may be less productive. Its soft, leafy growth is highly palatable to livestock, making it an excellent choice for improving overall feed quality.

As a nitrogen-fixing legume, Persian clover plays an important role in improving soil fertility by naturally adding nitrogen back into the soil, reducing reliance on synthetic fertilisers. It performs particularly well in mixed pasture systems, where it complements grasses by enhancing both feed value and pasture balance. Its quick germination and establishment make it ideal for short-term pasture improvement or filling seasonal feed gaps.

Persian clover grows best in cool, moist conditions and prefers fertile, well-drained soils with adequate phosphorus and potassium. It can adapt to a range of soil types and responds strongly to good moisture levels, whether from rainfall or irrigation. With correct management, including grazing control to allow regrowth, Persian clover delivers reliable productivity and improved pasture performance throughout its growing season. Cannot be sent to WA or TAS
