Corn Builder CC12 Cover Crop Mix

Legume Blend Preceding Corn

Three small-seeded legumes with excellent N-fixing capabilities.

  • Alfalfa and berseem clover will likely winterkill in Upper Midwest: red clover should over winter
  • Potential for high quality hay cutting in seeding year plus enough regrowth for fall/spring plowdown.
  • Harvesting for forage crop without enough time/moisture for adequate regrowth will limit nitrogen benefit for following crops
  • Weather conditions will impact growth rate and height of underseeding mix; don’t delay small grain harvest as alfalfa and berseem clover will continue to grow up into plant canopy
  • Small-seeded legumes are pre-inoculated

Planting Date: Spring-seeded with a small grain

Seeding: 12-15 lbs/acre drilled at 1/4” to 3/8” deep.
