Alfalfa grass is the general term for plants of the genus Medicago, native to Europe and the Americas. Alfalfa grass is a perennial forage of the Fabaceae family, widely distributed in northeast and north China, and is an excellent forage resource.

What is the yield per mu of purple alfalfa?

Because the growing period and natural conditions for alfalfa production vary greatly, 2~5 years after sowing the fresh grass yield per mu is generally 2000~4000 kg, and the hay yield is 500~800 kg. Under good water and heat conditions, 733~800 kg of hay can be produced per mu; in arid and low-temperature areas, 400~730 kg of hay per acre; in irrigated desert oasis areas, 800~1000 kg of hay per hectare.

How should purple alfalfa seeds be sown for the highest germination rate?

1. Select top-quality, plump purple alfalfa seeds.

2. Select sunny, fertile land for sowing (apply more fertilizer on poor land)

3. Prepare the land in advance, weed, fertilize, and water. (Pay attention to the order)

4. Keep the sowing depth at about 1~2 cm.
