- Excellent use of summer irrigation or natural rainfall
- One of the most widely sown varieties in NZ
Base
- Exceptional yielding tetraploid perennial ryegrass
- Excellent cool season yields
- Very high tiller density
- AR37 endophyte for strong persistence
- Excellent for dairy and intensive sheep/beef systems
- Best suited to rotational grazing
Prospect#
- Prospect has been bred from a diverse range of genetic perennial material
- Strong all-year-round performance
- A dense, fine-leaved diploid cultivar with high total production
Excess
- Excellent dry matter production
- Strongly persistent (AR37)
- Mid-season heading (+7 days)
- Exceptional summer, autumn and winter growth
- Low aftermath seed head emergence
Three60
- Very high annual dry matter production
- Excellent spring quality and summer leafiness
- Outstanding use of summer irrigation or natural rainfall
- Crown rust tolerance
Rely
- Strongly persistent (AR37)
- Fine leaf and dense tillers
- Excellent dry matter in challenging conditions
- Good rust tolerance
- Very good summer, autumn and winter growth
Samson
- Proven persistence in a wide range of New Zealand environments
- Productive under sheep and beef management
- Bred for improved rust tolerance
Expo
- Strong, year-round dry matter production
- Very high sugar (water soluble carbohydrate) levels
- Late flowering and low aftermath heading
- Very high tiller density
- Strong cool season growth
Halo
- Very late heading date for optimum feed quality
- Tetraploid perennial with good tiller density
- Strong summer/autumn growth
Lush
- Quick out of the ground – fast time to first grazing
- Ideal for undersowing into those opened up and thinned out pastures, as part of a pasture mix or sown as a pure sward
- Exceptional summer yield and quality (reduced aftermath heading)
- Strong second year production – better than traditional Italians, offering feed for longer
- Exceptional rust tolerance for better dry matter yields and consumption by stock
- The first tetraploid Italian ryegrass available with AR37 endophyte
Mohaka
- Ideal for undersowing programmes
- Ideal for short term finishing pastures, runoff pastures, supplementary systems
Vast
- Strong annual production with exceptional summer and autumn productivity
- Extremely late heading date (+36 days) boosting late seasonal pasture quality
- Diploid-level tiller density to enhance persistence
- Tetraploid grazing preference to drive animal intakes
- Excellent rust tolerance to improve summer and autumn palatability
Asset
- Excellent second year production potential
- Low aftermath seed head for a true Italian
- Asset is a dense cultivar suited to winter grazing
- Asset is ideal for silage production
Reason
- A high performing diploid perennial ryegrass with mid heading (+3)
- Well balanced, seasonal growth potential with excellent early-spring growth in cooler regions
- Persistent in and tolerant of a wide range of environments
- Very good tiller density with extremely low aftermath heading in summer
- Ideal for sheep, beef and dairy systems looking for extra spring growth while maintaining summer and autumn quality and production.
# Legion, Platform and Prospect have been bred, selected and successfully tested as a perennial and will function as a perennial ryegrass. Due to a small number of tip awns, Legion, Platform and Prospect are certified as Lolium boucheanum
