Abstract
Animal products are rich in nutrients and play an important and valuable role in ensuring food safety. Clover is one of the important forage plants; due to its palatability and softness of the aerial parts, it is a very suitable food for animals. The purpose of this research was to find the adaptation and comparison of three types of clover in terms of growth and yield in environmental conditions of Kabul. The research was conducted in the research farm of Agriculture Faculty of Kabul University in an area of 36m2 in the 2022 crop year with RCBD design included 3 replicates and 3 treatments. The treatments included Egyptian clover (T1), three-leaf clover (T2), and native clover (T3). The results showed that plant height, number of leaves, and number of stems of Egyptian clover variety have shown superiority, and in terms of flower, the native clover variety has shown superiority. Therefore, it is suggested for farmers to promote the cultivation of Egyptian clover in Kabul agro-climatic conditions and its similar areas for animal feed and green manure.
