RUAS Winter Fair 2019

This year, the Barenbrug team are launching 2 new grass varieties at the RUAS Winter Fair.

Callan is a late diploid perennial ryegrass with excellent spring growth, high quality and great yields under both cutting and grazing management. Callan was bred in Northern Ireland with our partners at the Agri Food & Biosciences Institute (AFBI). Alongside Callan comes Barclamp, the first Barenbrug bred hybrid ryegrass to make first choice listing on the SRUC Grass and Clover Varieties List. This diploid variety is late heading with good yields and quality. Both varieties are 100% UK produced crops and will be available via our Barforage Grass Seed range from 2020.
 
Regional Manager for Northern Ireland, David Linton comments "I always look forward to the RUAS Winter Fair with Barenbrug. It's always a busy show and gives us the opportunity to speak to farmers and merchants to not only thank them for their support in the past, but to let them see what is in store for next year with the launch of our 2020 BarForage mixture catalogue. As well as launching our latest varieties and mixtures, I am delighted to welcome Ruth Pollock from Braemar Farm back onto our stand. Braemar Farm are our Grass Into Gold partner farm in Northern Ireland and Ruth will be on the stand serving her delicious artisan ice cream to everyone with our compliments."
