COMMON VETCH
Vicia angustifolia Similar to Hairy Vetch, but has few tendrils, making tilling somewhat easier. Produces 2-3 tons of dry matter per acre when grown alone, and fixes 50-110 pounds of nitrogen per acre. The most vigorous of the vetches, with excellent green-matter production early in the season. Common Vetch grows larger than Hairy Vetch, and is a valuable forage crop and beneficial insect attractant. If supported by a companion plant, it can reach 3-5 feet, otherwise expect growth to 22 inches. It tolerates light mowing or grazing. Seed early in the fall or spring/summer. Recommended seeding rate: 1 pound per 1000 square feet; 25-40 pounds per acre. Needs to be inoculated.
