Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is tetraploid and belongs to the mid-maturing group. It possesses high dry matter productivity in both the first and subsequent cuts.

The variety is characterized by good resistance to rust and bacterial wilt. Its primary purpose is forage production, especially in the first cut, as well as cultivation as a winter cover crop. Recommended for cultivation in the conditions of northwestern, northeastern Germany, and low mountain ranges.
