Seeding Rate — Egyptian Clover

Trifolium alexandrinum L.

The seeding rate of Egyptian clover ranges from 6 to 25 kg/ha, depending on the cultivation objective, sowing method, and regional conditions.

In the reference 4 varieties crop Egyptian clover, where this is mentioned in the description.

For seed production, a seeding rate of approximately 6 kg/ha is recommended when using row-crop sowing with row spacing of up to 50 cm. In commercial stands intended for green fodder or hay production, seeding rates are typically increased to 12–15 kg/ha.

The selection of a seeding rate within the 10 to 25 kg/ha range has a direct impact on plant height and final crop yield. When sowing, it is critically important to ensure a seeding depth of 1–2 cm, which provides the necessary soil contact for uniform emergence.
