A tetraploid with diploid level density, Vast AR37 perennial ryegrass is the next generation in tetraploid perennial ryegrass breeding delivering the ultimate combination of density, quality, production and grazing preference for Australian farmers to maximise stock performance and productivity.
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.
Sowing rate (sole): 20-30kg/ha
Sowing rate (mixed): 20-25kg/ha
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.
