This will probably never be possible with annual white sweetclover. Illinois farmers have found, however, that considerable soilimprovement, as measured by crop returns, takes place when the cropresidues from a sweet-clover seed crop are turned under in the annual variety may act similarly, but there will not be as largea quantity of dry matter in a single seasons growth of the annualas in a seed stand of the biennial form.
