AberLasting is an innovative white clover that combines the characteristics of conventional white clover with the lasting persistence of Caucasian clover. Thanks to a unique dual rooting system, featuring both above-ground stolons and underground rhizomes, the plant is extremely resistant to drought, frost and wet conditions. But its dual rooting system is not its only distinctive feature: AberLasting offers several other powerful benefits.

• Helps reduce soil compaction
  AberLasting develops deep rhizomes that open up the soil and reduce compaction. This improves soil aeration and stimulates soil life, supporting long-term soil health.
   
• Extreme tolerance and resilience
  Its wide-reaching and deep rooting system makes it easier for AberLasting to absorb moisture from the soil during drought. This helps the plant retain moisture in its leaves for longer, keeping the clover green and productive for longer during dry periods. AberLasting also benefits from its deeper rhizomes during wet periods and when water pools in the field. Its deep roots open up the soil, allowing water to drain more quickly and reducing the risk of root rot and soil saturation. AberLasting also withstands temperatures as low as −30 °C, making it winter-hardy. These characteristics make AberLasting much more resilient and longer-lasting than conventional white clover.
   
• Rapid regrowth after grazing
  By producing above-ground stolons as well as underground roots, AberLasting establishes well and offers high grazing tolerance. This persistent clover is therefore highly suitable for prolonged trampling. Its stolons also support rapid regrowth, making it ideal for intensive grazing and cutting.
   
• High feed value
  AberLasting retains the palatable qualities of conventional white clover and is rich in protein and sugars. This makes it not only highly palatable but also readily digestible, with a high feed value. AberLasting therefore provides a valuable addition of usable protein to the ration.
   
• Nitrogen fixation
  By rooting both above and below ground, AberLasting can capture and fix nitrogen from the air faster than average. This helps retain nitrogen in the soil for longer, allowing surrounding grasses to benefit from the stored nitrogen over a longer period. This not only reduces nitrogen leaching but also lowers the need for mineral fertiliser.
   
• Boosts biodiversity
  AberLasting is also attractive to beneficial pollinating insects, promoting biodiversity in the field. It lasts longer than conventional clover and requires less frequent overseeding, helping support a healthier ecosystem over a longer period.
   

This unique combination makes AberLasting particularly suitable for permanent grassland and intensive grazing. It recovers quickly after grazing and provides optimal nitrogen fixation for a healthy sward. This white clover also offers excellent persistence and a longer lifespan than conventional white clover, making it suitable for sowing as a standalone crop or overseeding with a grass seed mixture.
