'Growing lucerne in cool climates' practice note written by partners from Scotland’s Rural College (SRUC) supports strategies for effective lucerne (Medicago sativa L.) production in cool regions.
Successful production of lucerne delivers high yields of protein without the use of fertiliser nitrogen. With care, it can be grown successfully in cool, temperate, oceanic climates when attention is given to establishment and management of the crop.
Lucerne provides a valuable forage.
