This mix contains the following products
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.

Halo
Halo AR37 is a late-heading tetraploid perennial ryegrass with very strong year-round performance and persistence. It produces a medium leaf size and increased tiller density, contributing to its summer quality and exceptional growth. With added protection from AR37 novel endophyte, Halo has increased pest tolerance along with improved regrowth potential and reduced aftermath seed head production.
Halo AR37 is ideal for stock finishing and dairying systems in fertile environments, due to increased summer production and quality, and is also suited to areas where other tetraploids do not persist due to high insect pressure. Very late flowering, and with excellent summer quality, Halo is likely to improve liveweight gain on finishing operations and milk production on dairy farms.
Sowing rate:
25-35 kg/ha alone
20-25 kg with clovers

Mainstay
A new highly productive, large leaf variety with high stolen density normally seen in smaller leaf varieties. Displays both persistence and high drymatter yields, making it ideal for use in high performance pastures. Has excellent heat tolerance and would be ideally suited in dairying pastures under irrigation.

Relish
Relish red clover offers superior persistence within grazing systems, with a semi-prostrate growth habit and high yield potential. As a perennial species it contains low levels of oestrogen and is highly productive in early spring, making it a suitable pure stand choice for lambs or in permanent mixes for quality grazing, hay or silage.
Sowing rate:
10 kg/ha alone
4-6 kg/ha in a mix
- 700mm+
Choice
Choice is a perennial chicory herb demonstrating 3-4 year persistence and a high level of summer dry matter production. This inexpensive herb provides high forage quality and warm-season pasture growth, with a deep taproot resulting in a consistent growth rate, even during dry spells.
Choice chicory can be added to new grass pasture mixes to boost animal performance and feed production.
