I I had to choose between Sericea Lespedeza and alfalfa, I would go with the SL. My Dad used to grow it for hay. Cut in the morning and bale that afternoon or evening. Less chance of getting rained on. Cut when it is about 10 inches tall. High protein. I have seen cows pick through hay to eat it first. It will put down roots 10 feet deep here in our clay soils and is very drought resistant. If I was a young man, I would plant a field of it just to prove how good a hay it makes. Should be planted in February to let frost heave scarify the hard seed. Or buy scarified seed. A friend used to grow it near here and combine it to sell to the NC DOT for roadside banks. He made a bunch of money doing that. Richard in NW SC
