Alfalfa

Medicago sativa

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is a perennial forb native to central US states (such as Kansas, Nebraska, and Idaho) and has also been successfully introduced across North America as a non-invasive forage crop that can thrive in USDA Zones 3–9. Reaching a mature height of 2–3 feet with an upright branching growth habit, it features dark green trifoliate leaves arising from a deep taproot and produces purple pea-like flowers. It thrives in deep, fertile, well-drained soils and is ideal for high-protein forage production, soil nitrogen fixation, and agricultural rotation.
