Narrative
Upright winter annual developed in Israel. Commonly referred to as unicut berseem clover type, since is only stem branching and won't regrow after cutting. In Egypt, where this type of berseem is commonly used, seed is broadcast in fall, irrigated once and allowed to mature for animal forage, usually donkeys. Sown on land needed for cropping in spring following late spring cutting. May be sown with barley or wheat and often precedes cotton or summer vegetables. Coarse plant, thick, hollow stems, long internodes, very low leaf/stem ratio. Hay quality can be poor. Flowers in spring much earlier than other types of berseem clovers. Susceptible to Ascochyta. Poor winter hardiness. Can attain heights up to 80 cm in 100 d of growth. Seed color predominantly yellow, small percentage with purple pigmentation, weight approx. 400,000 seeds/kg.
