Cavalier Spineless Burr Medic

Cavalier is a spineless Burr Medic and is now being used to replace Armadillo Burr Medic. Cavalier offers the same excellent hard seed like Armadillo for excellent reseeding for following fall stands. Cavalier is a mid maturing variety flowering in 90-95 days. It grows well in alkaline to slightly acid soils but still offers good salinity tolerance. Cavalier is palatable at all stages of growth with high protein values and excellent nitrogen fixation. Cavalier works best in soils from 6.0 to 8.5 PH and is not productive in deep sandy soils.
