SGT Rye Fairway

Utilising our sustainable grass technology (SGT) delivering grass requiring reduced water, fertiliser and chemical inputs.

USAGE: 

Overseeding, divoting and construction of medium-fine turf areas across a range of soil types.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

The “driver” of the mixture is Barprium perennial ryegrass. An outstanding fine-leafed ryegrass with proven capacity for nitrogen-use efficiency; put simply, it requires far less nitrogen (up to 50% less) to deliver equivalent turf performance. It also outperforms other ryegrasses in independent drought trials.

Barprium is highly ranked with a mean score of 7.4 on Table L1 Turfgrass Seed 2026 and exhibits strong summer colour, another useful characteristic for low-input golf fairways.

The fine fescue cultivars are chosen for their turf performance and sustainability traits also. The new slender creeping red fescue Barnoustie is ranked #1 in the 2026 BSPB/STRI Turfgrass Seed booklet for lawn/ fairway use, and in trials at Landlab in Italy Hardtop hard fescue and Barjessica strong creeping red fescue perform particularly well in periods of heat and drought.

The mixture exhibits high disease tolerance in lowinput environments. Hard fescue copes well under Dollar Spot pressure, and both Barnoustie and Barjessica have excellent Red Thread tolerance.
