Are you planning to plant a mixed pasture? These products are great companion species to plant with this variety.
One50
One50 is a new generation late-heading perennial ryegrass providing outstanding drymatter production and high quality feed for silage and hay. It is high yielding and offers excellent summer, autumn and winter production with strong quality late feed.
Due to One50's late-heading date it maintains vegetative leaf production into late-spring and early-summer, making pasture management easier. Recommended for rotational grazing, One50 is available with AR37 endophyte for improved persistence and production advantages.
Sowing rate:
20-25 kg/ha alone
15-20 kg/ha with clovers
- Endo
- Diploid
- 700mm+
Mach 1 ®
Mach 1 is a fast establishing, high yielding tetraploid annual ryegrass that is late flowering for high feed quality well into spring and early summer. It has excellent recovery from grazing and is the ideal high yield, late maturing crop for silage and hay production. Rotational grazing is recommended for maximum growth rate and hay booster type fertilisers will achieve extra drymatter for grazing, silage or hay production.
Sowing rate:
25-40 kg/ha alone
15-25 kg/ha with clovers
- Tetraploid
- 500mm+
Uplands
Uplands is a fine leaved Mediterranean cocksfoot with high tiller density and a very high level of drought and cold tolerance. It is a winter active and partially summer dormant variety that persists well under grazing, producing a large bulk of high protein, high energy forage that is highly palatable.
Best adapted for sowing in low rainfall temperate areas, Uplands grows rapidly in autumn to late spring and is very tolerant of aluminium and acid soils.
Sowing rate:
4-5 kg/ha alone
2-4 kg/ha with early maturing sub clovers
- 350mm+
Savvy
Savvy is a vigorous, very high yielding cocksfoot providing high production levels in all seasons, maintaining summer quality and palatability due to its low aftermath heading and soft leaves. Unlike most cocksfoot varieties, Savvy has exceptional disease resistance and has been bred to tolerate hard grazing in cattle and sheep systems, ensuring excellent recovery and persistence in a range of conditions.
Key features:
High autumn and winter production
High quality and very leafy with summer moisture
Bred for soft fine leaves
Disease tolerant
Increased palatability
Suited to well drained sandy loam soils
Tolerates acidic soils where perennial ryegrass struggles to persist
Sowing rate:
8-10 kg/ha pure stand
2-5 kg/ha with clovers and herbs
Endophyte:
Nil
Persistence:
5-10 years
