Quality pasture with the latest heading date of a perennial ryegrass on the market

Low seed head production after the initial seeding period, in combination with an extremely late flowering date, means Vast AR37 provides high quality feed across the majority of the growing season.

AR37 endophyte takes ryegrass pasture persistence and protection to a premium level.

An endophyte is a fungus found naturally in many grass speices, including ryegrass. It provides the plant with protection from insects, and in return the plant provides the endophyte with a place to live and reproduce. 

Pests controlled: Argentine Stem Weevil Larvae, Pasture Mealy Bug, Adult Black Beetle and Root Aphid.
