Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is a tetraploid hybrid obtained by crossing Italian and perennial ryegrass. The plant is characterized as a perennial hybrid with slow spring growth and high persistence, ensuring a stable yield over many years.

The variety is distinguished by rapid recovery after mowing, good sward structure, and reduced stem formation in mid-season. It possesses high productivity at the first cut for silage.

Recommended for intensive livestock systems, including zero-grazing technology, silage production, and use as feedstock for anaerobic digestion.
