Overview

303 Multi-Leaf alfalfa is a leafier type of alfalfa developed for cooler soils in the upper Midwest. 303 has good disease resistance and tolerates areas of heavy dews, cooler temperatures and early frosts. 303 comes out of dormancy later than Persist III or Secure Branch Root Alfalfa. While this reduces its cutting schedule, it still generates top forage yields in cooler climates. In general, alfalfa is one of the highest yielding forage plants available. Where adapted, alfalfa does well alone or in a mixture with tall-growing grasses. Alfalfa produces best on well-drained soil with good water holding capacity and pH of 6.5 or above. It is long-lived and drought resistant.

This seed has a protective coating and comes pre-inoculated with rhizobacteria. 

Coating color may be different than pictured above. Differences in color will not affect performance.
