Crimson clover, Trifolium incarnatum, stands out as one of the most breathtaking nitrogen-fixing cover crops. Originally hailing from the Mediterranean region, it made its way to the United States and has been utilized as a cover crop since the mid-1800s. Today, it proudly holds the title of the most widespread legume cover crop, cherished by farmers as a favored forage plant for livestock across the country. Crimson clover plays a vital role as a nectar source for honeybees and other pollinators, contributing significantly to their well-being.
