Sulla

Summary

Sulla is a highly productive, short lived perennial legume. Individual plants live for 2-3 years, but it will regenerate readily from seed.

Sulla is used for grazing/green chop/hay production and contains condensed tannins that make it bloat-safe, increase protein digestion and make sulla less attractive to insects.

These tannins also provide a reputed anthelmintic effect which may reduce worm and nematode burdens.
