Durana is highly persistent under grazing and is best used to enrich existing, unimproved cool or warm season grass pastures, especially if ridding a pasture of toxic fescue is not an option.
Product Details
- Excellent for grazing fall through early summer
- Increases the attractiveness and nutritional value of wildlife food plots
- Durana-grass mixtures may be used for high-quality hay or silage
- Best used to enrich existing cool or warm season grass pastures
- Captures 50 to 125 lbs of atmospheric nitrogen per acre per year
Product Information
Research and ranch experiences repeatedly demonstrate the superior feed value of a white clover-grass mixture compared to grass alone. Improvements in conception rates, milk production, calf weaning weights, daily gains and animal health can be realized. Durana-grass mixtures may also be used for high-quality hay or silage. Durana also captures atmospheric nitrogen - 50 to 125 lbs. per acre per year.
18 to 28% crude protein and total digestible nutrients(TDN) ranging from 65 to 85%. Highest values will be obtained with a vegetative to 10% bloom harvest. Maturity of the crop at harvest will determine individual results.
Bloat can be a problem for animals on pastures with a large proportion (>35%) of white clover. Bloat-preventative supplement materials are recommended.
The Yield Up Brand Denotes Pennington's Best. Durana white clover qualifies to be a Yield Up brand because of its superior persistence under grazing. Durana is a durable, all purpose white clover you can count on to persist under grazing, compete in tall fescue and bermudagrass sod, maintain a long stand life, provide a high quality diet to grazing animals, and fix nitrogen to share with companion grasses.
Planting:
- Rate: 3 lbs. / acre drilled or broadcast into established pastures; 5 lbs. / acre for a pure stand in new pasture
- Date: September - November in southern U.S.; Frost seeded in February and March; Spring seeded in late March or April.
- Method: Graze or clip pasture close prior to seeding.
- Depth: 1/4“ maximum; many stand failures result from seed planted too deep.
- Fertilizer: Liming to a pH of 6.0 and providing adequate levels of potassium and phosphorus are necessary to ensure a productive clover stand. Soil testing is highly recommended; see your local county extension office for details.
Management:
Durana seed is pelletized with a coating of lime and selected Rhizobia strains for optimal nitrogen fixation and once established and nodulated will not require the addition of nitrogen. Clip or harvest surplus forage in under stocked pastures. Under continuous grazing, keeping the grass height at 2 to 6 inches will help maintain the clover and control the grass or weeds.

United StatesDurana White Clover is showing promising results under unfavorable conditions. I seeded at a rate of 5 lbs/acre onto raw dozer-leveled skid trails in a fresh logging job in southwest Pennsylvania in the last week of October with no soil conditioning or prep. Impressively, this clover seed managed to germinate in less than a week and appears to be still growing after a hard frost while the plants are still less than 1/8" tall.
Awesome! We love the durana clover and are happy you are having such great results even in not so great conditions. Thank you for your review!
