Both red (Trifolium pratense L.) and white (Trifolium repens L.) clover
seed yields can be highly variable and low in western Oregon. The objectives of
this study were to: i) determine crop water requirements and supplemental
irrigation timing, and ii) quantify the effects of soil and water status on
inflorescence...

Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) - white clover
(Trifolium repens) hill-land pastures were grazed at
different times in the winter to study the effect of time
of winter grazing on plant response and forage production.
The same pastures were grazed by sheep once in early
December, January, February, March, or April...

Subclovers are used for forage and hay and have been used successfully in Oregon as fall-planted and relay interplanted cover crops in annual rotations. They are capable of accumulating substantial amounts of N, a portion of which is available to the following crop. Rapid growth suppresses weeds in spring.
Small broomrape (Orobanche minor Sm.) is a parasitic weed that recently has become troublesome in red clover seed production in Oregon. It was identified
in a single red clover seed production field in 1998, and the number of infestations increased to 15 by 2000 and 22 by 2001.
Small broomrape (Orobanche minor) is a parasitic weed that attaches to the roots of red clover (Trifolium pratense). Small broomrape invasion presents a significant threat to the future of red clover seed production in Oregon. This study was conducted to investigate and develop small broomrape management options for red clover...
