    I've had good results with clover I got from our local co-op. It is drought and winter tollerant and provides a ton of protien and also will last for up to 5 years or more if taken care of. Oh and the deer love it!!!!!
    As far as the best, the best is what ever works for you.

    Split rows of roundup ready soybeans and roundup ready corn with enuf space in between to prevent shading of the beans from the corn. Protein, carbos, and weed control....You will need about 10 acres to be effective.

    Some good clover blends out there. Best results we have had have been from fall plantings on clovers. Check out hamannfarms blends, pennington also has some great seed blends.

    I did the same thing! Get your seed from your local co-op or farm supply. They know your area better than the big name brands and they are always there for advise. Not to mention it will be MUCH cheaper.
