	White Clover
		White clover, one of the most useful forage legumes in eastern Oklahoma, is generally used with grasses for pastures and hay.
		White clover is more tolerant of continuous stocking than many other forage legumes; however, large white clover persists best if hayed or rotationally stocked because repeated harvests before flowering will not produce enough seed for reseeding.
		White clover should be grazed with enough animals to remove all but 2 to 3 inches of growth, followed by 2 to 3 weeks of regrowth and regrazing.

	Cover Crop Database: Complete Crop Summary of White Clover
		White clover seedlings are epigeal; germination occurs at the soil surface (Gibson and Cope, 1985).
		White clover is relatively shallow rooted, with most roots in the top 20 cm of soil, although some roots extend to a depth of 1 m or more; clones expand through the adventitious rooting of stolons (Gibson and Cope, 1985).
		White and Scott (1991) in New York found that yield of cereal rye was less affected by living mulch of white clover, 'Ladino' clover, or red clover than of crown vetch, birdsfoot trefoil or alfalfa.

	White Clover (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)

		He says improved white clover "behaves in the windrow somewhat like dandelions," tending to be rather limp and matted in the windrow.

	Establishing White Clover in Lawns (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		White clover (Trifolium repens) can be established by encouraging spread of naturally invading, wild white clover, or by seeding a new lawn/overseeding an existing lawn with white clover, or a combination of the two approaches.
		Clover seed can even be 'frost seeded' in late March or early April on ground that is still mostly frozen; the seed drops into small cracks as the surface alternately thaws during the day and freezes again at night.
		I have a suspicion that what actually happens is that wild white clovers invade the area and proliferate under the low nitrogen regime (which should be practiced concurrently with seeding clover) and it is the wild white clover that is persisting, not the introduced clover.
