Pasture Lucerne (Alfalfa) – Premium Forage Seed for High-Yield, Nutritious Pastures
Overview:
Pasture Lucerne (Alfalfa) is a high-quality forage seed cultivated to produce vigorous, nutrient-rich pastures for livestock. This variety is ideal for farmers seeking high-protein, palatable forage that supports healthy animal growth, increased milk production, and improved meat quality. Alfalfa thrives in a wide range of Kenyan agro-ecological zones, producing dense, deep-rooted, and drought-tolerant pastures suitable for grazing or cutting for hay and silage.
The hybrid vigor of Pasture Lucerne ensures rapid establishment, robust growth, and long-term productivity, allowing for multiple cuttings per season. Its deep root system enhances soil structure, reduces erosion, and improves soil fertility by fixing atmospheric nitrogen. The variety is resistant to common pests and diseases, ensuring healthy pastures and consistent forage supply. Farmers benefit from high dry matter yield, continuous grazing availability, and improved livestock performance, making it an essential component of sustainable livestock farming.
