ROKALI

Agronomic Profile of Rokali Red Clover

The Rokali red clover variety, developed by the Danish breeding giant DLF, is a specialized solution for intensive forage production. The breeding focus is on maximizing vegetative mass potential under temperate climatic conditions.

Morphological Features and Productivity

Rokali forms a robust fibrous root system, ensuring efficient uptake of moisture and nutrients from the topsoil. Plants reach a height of 40-80 cm, an optimal parameter for mechanized harvesting for both hay and green mass. Yields of 20-25 t/ha are achieved through intensive tillering and high regeneration capacity.

Technological Advantages of the Variety

• Regeneration Speed: Characterized by extremely fast regrowth after mowing, allowing for more cuts per growing season.
• Biochemical Composition: The variety stands out for its consistently high protein content, which directly translates into the nutritional value of forage units for livestock.
• Durability: Genetic resistance to trampling makes the crop suitable for inclusion in hay-pasture grass mixtures where stand longevity is critical.
• Agroecology: Rokali is a valuable honey plant, providing a sustainable forage base for bees during the flowering period.

Sowing Recommendations

To achieve target yields, a seeding rate of 10-12 kg/ha is recommended. It is essential to carefully manage seeding depth, given the small seed size, to establish a dense and uniform stand capable of effectively competing with weeds during early development stages.
