Crimson Clover Seed | Raw Or Coated & Inoculated

Scientific Name: Trifolium incarnatum

Seed Ranch Crimson Clover Seed is a premium cool-season annual legume widely planted for livestock forage, wildlife food plots, cover cropping, soil improvement, erosion control, and seasonal color enhancement. Recognized for its brilliant crimson flower heads and nutrient-rich forage, Crimson Clover delivers exceptional performance in pastures, agricultural fields, and conservation plantings throughout much of the United States.

This versatile legume establishes quickly during the fall and develops a strong root system through the winter months before producing abundant forage growth in late winter and spring. Its highly digestible leaves and stems are readily consumed by livestock and wildlife, making it a valuable addition to grazing systems and wildlife management programs.

In addition to providing quality forage, Crimson Clover naturally fixes atmospheric nitrogen, helping improve soil fertility while reducing the need for supplemental nitrogen fertilizer. The striking red blooms also attract pollinators, including bees and beneficial insects, making it an excellent choice for pollinator habitats and conservation projects.


Key Benefits

Feature Benefit
High-Protein Forage Excellent feed source for livestock and wildlife
Nitrogen Fixation Helps improve soil fertility naturally
Attractive Crimson Blooms Creates stunning seasonal color and attracts pollinators
Cool-Season Growth Produces forage when warm-season grasses are dormant
Soil Improvement Increases organic matter and enhances soil health
Erosion Control Helps protect soil from runoff and erosion
Wildlife Attraction Popular choice for deer, turkey, and other game species
Potential Reseeding May return naturally under favorable management conditions

Adaptation & Growing Conditions

Crimson Clover performs best in fertile, well-drained soils with adequate moisture. It tolerates moderately acidic soil conditions and is commonly planted alone or in combination with annual ryegrass, oats, wheat, rye, bermudagrass, or bahiagrass overseeding programs.

Growing Requirement Recommendation
Climate Cool-Season Annual
Sun Exposure Full Sun to Partial Sun
Soil Type Loam, Clay Loam, and Other Well-Drained Soils
Soil pH 5.5–7.0
Drainage Well-Drained Preferred
Drought Tolerance Moderate
Flood Tolerance Low

Crimson Clover is less suited for excessively sandy soils, drought-prone locations, or areas that remain saturated for extended periods.


Recommended Seeding Rates

Raw Crimson Clover Seed

Application Seeding Rate
Per Acre 20–25 lbs.
Per 1,000 Sq. Ft. 0.5–0.6 lbs.

Coated & Inoculated Crimson Clover Seed

Application Seeding Rate
Per Acre 25–35 lbs.
Per 1,000 Sq. Ft. 0.6–0.8 lbs.

Why Are Coated Seeding Rates Higher?

Coated and inoculated seed includes a protective seed coating and beneficial rhizobium inoculant designed to support germination and nitrogen-fixing activity. Because the coating adds weight to each seed, there are fewer actual seeds per pound compared to raw seed. Increasing the seeding rate helps achieve proper plant populations and more uniform stand establishment.


Planting Information

Planting Factor Recommendation
Planting Season Fall through Early Winter
Planting Depth ¼–½ Inch
Germination Time Approximately 7–14 Days
Companion Plantings Ryegrass, Small Grains, Bermudagrass, Bahiagrass
Moisture Requirement Consistent Moisture During Establishment

Proper seed-to-soil contact is important for successful germination and vigorous early growth.


Grazing & Harvest Management

Crimson Clover should generally be allowed to reach 6–8 inches in height before grazing begins. To encourage continued growth and stand persistence, avoid grazing below 3–5 inches. The forage produced is highly palatable and can be utilized for grazing, hay production, or silage.

For producers interested in natural reseeding, grazing pressure should be reduced during peak flowering and seed development. Allowing plants to mature and set seed can help establish future stands under favorable growing conditions.


Common Uses

  • Livestock Pastures

  • Wildlife Food Plots

  • Deer Habitat Enhancement

  • Pollinator Plantings

  • Cover Crops

  • Nitrogen-Building Programs

  • Hay Production

  • Silage Production

  • Erosion Control Projects

  • Roadside and Landscape Beautification

Genius solution for a cleaner, more organized desk
Color: Transparent, Color: Transparent
This mount completely transformed my workspace. I was looking for a way to get my laptop off my desk without buying a whole new piece of furniture, and this delivered. The clear design blends into any space so it doesn’t look clunky, and installation was easier than I expected. My laptop is secure and easily accessible, and I’ve freed up so much desk real estate. If you’re trying to create a cleaner, more minimal workspace, this is a great purchase. We did have to screw it in place because the sticky side came off after a few days, but I think it’s just the temperature fluctuations in my office.

Perfect for my daughter's Chromebook!
Color: Black
Comes with adhesive and screws. I chose to use the adhesive and it works great. My daughter got a Chromebook for school and its a great place to put it so we charge it when she gets in from school and remember to grab it before she leaves! Very easy installation, so far pretty sturdy, great price, and it fits perfect because you can adjust to whatever size you need.

Great fit and finish, quality hardware, well worth it!
Color: Black
Great product. It seem like it would probably fit most modern size laptops. He adhesive mounting tape seems very strong, but I used the screws for extra strength. Comes with it all…hardware and screwdriver. The plastic is quality and built strong. I had to trim on of the slots in the side to accommodate my computers plug, but that’s not the fault of this product. I would recommend this absolutely.

DO NOT USE THE PROVIDED SCREWS
Color: Black
The screws they include are so cheap and they start to strip halfway in (even with pilot holes). The holders themselves are fine but now now the screws can go in or get out so it's either destroy the product or live with it. I used a quality screw on the one side and it worked just fine. Poor quality and not very thoughtful. If you buy, get your own screws.
