Bur Clover, also known as Medicago polymorpha, is a type of plant that belongs to the legume family. It is often found in fields and pastures, thriving in warm climates. The plant is recognizable by its small, round seed pods that can stick to clothing and animal fur, which helps it spread its seeds over a wide area. This clover is not just a nuisance; it also plays a role in improving soil health. As a legume, it can fix nitrogen in the soil, making it more fertile for other plants. Farmers often appreciate Bur Clover for its ability to enhance pasture quality and support livestock.
