Import Tips
• Provide moisture content tests showing under 15% to distinguish from silage and confirm dry forage status
• Include supplier declarations specifying pure clover content to avoid reclassification as mixed hay
• Check for fumigation certificates if originating from regions with clover-specific pests like weevils
