Also known as Medicago sativa, Alfalfa is a perennial flowering, leguminous plant, famous as a forage crop. Often, it is used for hay, cattle grazing, and green manure, and as an emerging superfood, parts of it are also used for consumption. Alfalfa sprouts are widely consumed for being dense in proteins and all major vitamins, becoming a part of a myriad of salad preparations. Moreover, their dried seeds and leaves are also used to make health supplements. Additionally, these wonderful superfoods are easy and quick to grow from Alfalfa seeds, often germinating within 2-6 days after sowing.
