Key benefits

• The mixture has been designed to provide season-long production, with exceptional early spring and late summer growth
• This mixture delivers maximum production by using the top yielding varieties
• The proportion of tetraploid varieties ensures better drought resistance and 
higher water-soluble carbohydrate content
• The white clover option is included for nitrogen fixation and increased protein content
• GALGORM holds top position for total yield in both grazing and silage management. No other intermediate diploid variety on the list produces more ME yield per hectare under grazing management (106% of the mean of all intermediate diploid varieties on the list) and is very persistent in grazing swards
• FINTONA is a high yielding perennial ryegrass with excellent spring growth and total yield under both cutting and grazing

When to sow

Sow when soil temperature is above 6°C; clover will germinate at 10°C.

When to cut & graze

Produces highly digestible forage from a late May - early June first cut with the mixture averaging over 70% D value throughout the season.

This top-quality dual purpose mixture has the ability to be grazed from early spring through to late summer. If it is being used as cut and graze, the mixture will deliver two exceptional silage cuts and early summer grazing, making it truly flexible.
