Cut at 24” to 30” height
Use only on well-drained soils
Resistant to iron deficiency chlorosis and high magnesium soils
Rapid growth rate and excellent recovery after cutting
Great for grazing, greenchop and hay—DON’T graze at less than 24” tall
WARNING: Wait 10 days after a frost before cutting to prevent prussic acid poisoning
Seed at 20-30 lbs per acre

Seed at 15-20 lbs per acre
Very persistent
Starts strong and looks even better in second and third hay years
Superior disease resistance
Performs better than alfalfa on wet and poorer soils
Seed at 10-12 lbs per acre by itself or 2-3 lbs per acre with alfalfa
Adapted to low pH soils
Great fall ground cover
Plant 3-10 weeks before killing frost
Sends deep tap roots down to open up soil
Tubars store deep soil nutrients that break down and release in spring
Plant 1/4” – 1/2” deep
Seed at 8-10 lbs per acre, 4-6 lbs if mixed
Festulolium is a cross between Perennial Ryegrass and Meadow Fescue, giving it several very excellent qualities: ease of establishment, persistence, rapid regrowth, good disease resistance, season-long performance and high forage quality. Don’t let the long name put you off. If you need a grass, use Festulolium.
A late maturing variety that keeps its quality when seeded with alfalfa. Also does extremely well when frost-seeded into a thinning pasture.
Fits well in clover and alfalfa mixes. Highly palatable. Horses love it.
Works well when seeding down with alfalfa at 3-5 lbs per acre. Very high palatability allows more milk per acre yields. Best as a cover crop.
Ideal for long term pastures. High palatability and fast recovery allows for intensive grazing management and higher milk production.
Quicker to establish than Smooth Brome and provides higher yields of more palatable forage especially in the seeding year.
