Summary

Red clover cultivar (Merviot vs. Ruttinova) impacted on annual yield while an earlier harvesting schedule improved herbage digestibility. In contrast, the application of inorganic N to red clover in spring resulted in no benefit. This paper reports the treatment effects on crop crude protein concentration.
