Variety description

The turf variety is a perennial ryegrass with dark green, fine leaves and high turf density. It is characterized by the ability to tolerate low mowing down to 12 mm, growth at low temperatures of about 5°C, high wear resistance, and self-repair capability.

The forage variety is an annual ryegrass intended for use as livestock feed or a cover crop. It is distinguished by high germination energy, rapid growth that allows for weed suppression, and winter hardiness characteristic of its species.
