We use Norgold clover, no problems with bloat but is a hard crop to get put up in the right condition and a person will want to mix it off, not for bloat but for digestive reasons.
Yes partly the plan. I ws going to plant it early enough to fall graze,spring graze and cut early enough to hold some cows for a week or so after I cut it. Thats asking alot I know but it does well with little moisture and we seem to be getting alot of that lately
