Abstract

Ten years experience from trial-and-error plus some advice, has led to the development of successful base management systems for white clover cultivar-change. These systems are capable of modification according to site and season to maximise seed returns and have reached the point where white clover is now my safest crop. This paper considers crop management requirements necessary from the 'change' decision, some years before inception, through to harvested seed yield. Keywords: crop management, cultivar-change requirements, harvest, seed production, sowing technology, Trifolium repens L., white clover
