The growing season lasts 116 days.

During the flowering period, about 20 food units are allocated in green forage. protein. The amount of substance in hay is 44 units. In natural hayfields, the yield is almost the same as that of white melilot. The plant has a strong coumarin aroma. Therefore, in natural conditions, animals do not perceive it. But on culturally created pastures, animals get used to melilot and eat it along with other food. However, they perceive the yellow sweet clover worse than the white one.

    Annual sweet clover is unique in that:

• blooms in the first year after sowing,
• in     honey productivity is significantly superior to biennial varieties of sweet clover,
• ideal for seeding various waste land, salt marshes, fields, etc.
• used as animal feed,
• has the most valuable medicinal properties.

Honey productivity   ranges from 300 to 800 kg / ha. Even in hot summers, honey productivity does not drop below 300 kg / ha. Melilot, yellow as a melliferous plant, is valuable in that it secretes nectar even in dry summers, when other plants do not secrete nectar. In sweet clover flowers, yellow nectar is readily available to honey bees.

Melilot does not lose seed germination for more than 10 years. The seeds should be stored in a dry and dark place with a moisture content of 12-13%. For 10-15 days before sowing, the seeds are brought into a warm room, dried and heated. The germination capacity and the presence of hard-stone seeds of sweet clover are determined. If the content of hard seeds is more than 15%, a few days before sowing, the sweet clover seeds must be scarified (scratched so that the seeds begin to swell). Scarification at home can be done manually with sandpaper. Seed germination after scarification will reach 90%.  

Annual sweet clover is unpretentious to soils, but grows better on soils rich in lime, and does not tolerate acidic soils.  

Sowing of annual sweet clover begins in early spring and continues until the end of May. Sowing can be carried out before winter, if it is necessary that the flowering of the sweet clover begins in the spring, in this case it is necessary to sow the clover around the middle or end of October so that the sweet clover seeds do not sprout. With summer sowing of sweet clover, flowering will continue until frost. Compaction must be carried out before and after sowing.
