Mammoth Red Clover is widely grown as a fodder crop, highly valued for its ability to fix nitrogen and improve soil fertility, making it an excellent green manure crop.

Red clover is not only beneficial for soil health but also used to make sweet-tasting herbal tea and is an ingredient in some recipes for essiac tea. In traditional Indian medicine, it is used as a deobstruent, antispasmodic, expectorant, sedative, anti-inflammatory, and antidermatosis agent. While dietary amounts of red clover are safe, medicinal quantities may cause side effects such as rash-like reactions, muscle ache, headache, nausea, vaginal bleeding, and slow blood clotting.
