Other claims from this paper (13)
- Observation Clover species did not differ significantly in seedling counts.
- Intervention effect Self-reseeding stands produced earlier growth.
- Observation Total production did not differ significantly by seeding method.
- Observation Crimson clover averaged 33% more forage than arrowleaf.
- Mechanism Arrowleaf had lower yields due to poor recovery and regrowth during drought.
- Intervention effect Grass after clover produced 18% more forage than fertilized grass without clover.
- Observation Total grass yield did not significantly differ after crimson versus arrowleaf clover.
- Observation The first grass harvest after arrowleaf was reduced.
- Mechanism Greater competition from arrowleaf than crimson clover caused the first-harvest reduction.
- Intervention effect Clover followed by Coastal bermudagrass produced 47% more total forage than fertilized grass without clover.
- Observation The crimson clover–bermudagrass sequence produced the highest total forage.
- Observation Crimson clover contributed 22% to total yield.
- Recommendation The authors recommend winter annual clovers to supply part of summer grass nitrogen needs.
