RGA Birdsfoot Trefoil

ReGenAg Birdsfoot Trefoil is a high-quality perennial forage legume known for its excellent palatability, persistence, and ability to thrive on soils where other legumes may struggle. Unlike many forage legumes, Birdsfoot Trefoil contains naturally occurring condensed tannins, which can help reduce the risk of bloat in grazing livestock while improving protein utilization.

Well adapted to the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions, Birdsfoot Trefoil performs exceptionally well on moderately acidic, low-fertility, and poorly drained soils. Its long-lived nature and ability to persist under grazing pressure make it an outstanding choice for pasture improvement, forage production, conservation programs, and regenerative agriculture systems.
