Coe is a scientific publication produced by the United States Department of Agriculture, specifically released as Farmers' Bulletin 820 in the early 20th century, around 1917. The book focuses on the various applications and benefits of sweet clover as a forage crop, discussing its nutritional value for livestock, its role as a soil enhancer, and its utility in crop rotations. Through various case studies and research, it establishes sweet clover's significance in agriculture, particularly for pasturing animals and improving soil health.  The content is structured methodically, detailing the uses of sweet clover as pasture, hay, silage, and a feeding crop. It emphasizes that sweet clover provides nutritious forage throughout the growing season, has a lower incidence of bloat among livestock compared to other legumes, and is resilient on poor soils. Additionally, the book elaborates on sweet clover's ability to improve soil structure and fertility due to its deep roots and nitrogen-fixing capabilities. By the end, it presents various feeding experiments showcasing the productivity and economic benefits of sweet clover in livestock diets, making a compelling case for its increased adoption in farming practices.
