Red Clover Rozeta (Trifolium pratense) is a medium-early forage clover valued for dense growth, melliferous potential and high green mass yield. It suits meadows, cutting leys, forage production and grass-clover mixtures. The variety offers good feed value, reliable regrowth and support for pollinators.

Sowing

Sow Red Clover Rozeta into a well-prepared, firm seedbed with a fine surface. Good seed-to-soil contact supports even emergence. The seed can be drilled or broadcast. It may be grown alone or in mixtures with grasses for hay, silage or green fodder.

Sowing depth

Sow 1-2 cm deep. Shallow sowing is preferred, especially on heavier or settled soils. Clover seed is small and should not be buried too deeply. Light rolling after sowing improves contact and establishment.

Best sowing time

Sow from late February to April or from June to early September. Spring sowing establishes forage stands for the season ahead. Summer sowing can work after an earlier crop or when renewing grassland. Match timing to local weather and soil moisture.

Seeding rate

In pure sowing, the usual rate is about 8-12 kg/ha. The exact amount depends on intended use, soil and whether the crop is grown alone or in a mixture. For meadow use, hay or silage leys, adjust the rate to the companion grasses.

Site and soil

This red clover performs best in fertile, moderately moist soils with good structure and adequate nutrients. It suits meadows, temporary grassland and arable fields used for forage. Avoid very acidic, compacted or waterlogged sites.

Cultivation and care

Good field preparation is essential. The soil should be level, firm and free from excessive clods and weeds. During early growth, keep weed pressure low. In forage use, regular cutting at the right stage maintains stand quality. Red Clover Rozeta is typically used for 2-3 years.

Height

Plants usually reach up to about 70 cm. Height depends on soil fertility, moisture, cutting regime and whether the crop grows alone or with grasses. Its upright, dense habit suits mowing and forage stands.

Uses

Red Clover Rozeta is intended mainly for green fodder, hay and silage. It performs well on cutting meadows and grassland used for feed. It is also useful in grass-clover mixtures and supports bees during flowering.

Resistance and persistence

This variety is valued for high resistance, good winter hardiness and reliable field performance. Dense growth supports regular agricultural use. Persistence depends on site selection, balanced management and timely cutting.

What is worth knowing?

Rozeta is a named red clover variety, not white clover or lawn microclover. It is selected for agricultural use, especially for green mass, hay and silage. Its medium-early development fits many forage systems.
