Oregon Clover Industry

Clover seed is a key commodity produced in Oregon that is grown by 750 farmers on about 40,000 acres in the Willamette Valley. There are many kinds of clover, but four dominate Oregon production—red, white, crimson and arrowleaf. Oregon farmers produce about 95% of the crimson clover seed in the United States and more than 60% of the red clover seed.

The seed is shipped throughout the world for use as source of high quality forage for livestock and wildlife.  In addition, farmers and gardeners have found clover to be a valuable cover crop to improve soil health and naturally provide nitrogen to plants.

Generations of Oregon clover seed growers have developed an industry that produces the highest quality seed available anywhere. These growers are innovative and dedicated to their craft, to benefit of consumers everywhere.
