Freedom! MR clover

Freedom! is a Red Clover from Kentucky that was bred for dry matter yield, and is long-lived and mildew-resistant. It is noted for having thinner stems with less pubescence (hairs), which allows it to dry faster. In our test plots, Freedom! looks very impressive. Quality test results have been excellent as well. Our most recommended red clover for hay, Freedom! has proven to be a very high yielding red clover with very good heat tolerance as well as winter hardiness.

Freedom! is pre-inoculated with Rhizobium bacteria for best nitrogen fixation.
