2018年4月3日 · Using Sainfoin as a hay and forage crop has become increasingly popular due to it's longevity, tolerance of root-knot nematode, "bloat-free forage", and drought tolerance. It can be used for silage or hay and can be grazed.

: Fabaceae (Legume family). Sainfoin is a deep-rooted perennial legume arising from a branching root crown. Flowers are showy and pink, white or purple and tightly arranged in a compact raceme with 20 to 50 flowers per head (figure 1). Leaves are odd-pinnately compound with 11 to 21 leaflets. Sainfoin typically grows taller than alfalfa

This refers to sainfoin's good properties as a forage plant for large mammalian herbivores. Sainfoin is derived from Old French sain foin ("healthy hay"). In the words of the 16th-century soil scientist Olivier de Serres: "The herb is called sain-foin' in France, in Italy herba medica, in Provence and the Languedoc luzerne.

I have been getting a lot of questions on my travels around the state about sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia), and how can it fit into forage production in Montana. Sainfoin is a legume, with a bright pink flower (although they can also be white or purple), and leaves with 11-21 leaflets.

2022年6月20日 · Sainfoin Onobrychis viciifolia, is nutrient dense herb support for diabetes, neurotic disorders, hypochondriacal conditions, sleep disorders, impotence, constipation, colitis and menopause

Sainfoin can be planted in the fall, but spring plantings have the best emergence. Plant dryland sainfoin with pods in 21- to 30-inch wide rows at 20 to 14 pounds, respectively, of pure live seed (PLS) per acre (see Plant Materials Technical Note, MT-46, current revision).

Sainfoin is a nitrogen fixer, so Rhizobia in root nodules of sainfoin fix nitrogen and boost soil nitrogen. The roots penetrate to great depths and pull nutrients up from the subsoil. Sainfoin has been found to increase the sequestration of nutrients such as phosphate.

2005年1月11日 · • It has been reported that Sainfoin shows some resistance to Glyphosate at low rates (4-6 oz) • Some herbicides used on Alfalfa have potential with Sainfoin

Onobrychis viciifolia, also known as O. sativa or common sainfoin (IPA: ['sænfɔɪn]) was an important forage legume in temperate regions until the 1950s. During the Green Revolution it was replaced by high yielding alfalfa and clover species.

2021年7月12日 · This will help us understand how sainfoin responds to a wide range of growing environments and support sainfoin domestication. This season we’re introducing two new materials for sainfoin civic science
