{{Inc|
Vicia villosa, Roth. Hairy, Sand or Russian Vetch. Fig. 3930. Annual or biennial (sometimes perennial?), enduring the winters in the N., villous-pubescent: lfts. 5-10 pairs, elliptic-oblong, rounded at the tip but usually ending in a very minute point: fls. violet-blue, in long 1-sided axillary about 30-fld. racemes. Eu., Asia. R.F.G. 22:234.—Now considerably used as a cover-crop. More hardy than V. sativa but the pods shatter more easily and the seeds are smaller. In N. Italy it can be cut early enough to produce a crop of millet the same season.
