This is a basic video about crimson clover as a cover crop. Crimson clover is an annual plant that is usually planted in the fall and worked back into the soil in the Spring prior to planting out your main crop. Its an easy cover crop to establish, great success can be had by sowing by hand over bare soil in the fall at a rate of at least 1/3 oz per 100 sq ft. Crimson clover is hardy down to at least mid 20 degrees F. This is a legume cover crop that fixes nitrogen. No microbial inoculant is needed for crimson clover. You can expect it to contribute somewhere between 30-100 lbs of N on a per acre basis. The amount of nitrogen fixation usually depends on how much biomass is grown. If you want to geek out on crimson clover, you can follow the protocols for estimating N contribution developed by Oregon State University found here, https://catalog.extension.oregonstate.... In a nutshell, you cut a sample of crimson clover from your field close to your chop down date and weigh it wet. Then you send the sample to a lab and ask them to analyze it for % Dry Matter and % Nitrogen. Then you calculate what your representative sample results over the corresponding area of your field. The results can help you determine if you can reduce the amount of organic fertilizer (like chicken manure) that you will have to apply to your main season summer crop.
