Cicer Milk vetch

[Big Muddy rancher]

Anybody using it?

I have heard it's a tough plant and stands up good to grazing pressure and doesn't fade like Alfalfa.

I was wondering if I could mix some seed in my mineral and have the cattle spread it around on some old Crested Wheat pastures and get some growing?

Cicer Milkvetch is an increaser and fairly hearty. It increases by seed so if you kept it mowed it obviously wouldn't be. It does not survive the rumen well like Alfalfa does. One of my favorite legumes.

I think we have a field of it just north of the park-I'll go take a pic of it next week when the boss is back.
