Clovers are either white or red varieties.  Clovers and Lucerne (aka Alfalfa) have a higher protein concentration and a higher mineral concentration (e.g. calcium) than grasses.  Lucerne can be grazed or conserved as a monoculture.  Lucernes also have a higher protein concentration than grasses.  Legume silages tend to be more difficult to achieve a good fermentation, inoculants are usually required.
