As a perennial forage crop, sainfoin remains productive for an average of 3-5 years.
Its drought tolerance and strong performance in calcareous, poor soils make it well suited to challenging fields.
In dry areas, sowing can be done for soil improvement and erosion control. Its deep root structure helps release phosphorus in the soil, adding further value as a soil-improving crop.
For pasture improvement, it is also sown together with other forage crops.
Quality forage is supported by high digestibility and no risk of bloat.
Economical production is supported by low irrigation, fertilizer and spraying requirements.
