Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is characterized by good stand density, reaching approximately 94%. The plant possesses high adaptability to various soil conditions, including sandy soils, and due to its non-aggressive growth habit, it combines well with clover and alfalfa.

Lirocco demonstrates resistance to fungal diseases, in particular choke disease (Epichloë typhina), and a low degree of infection with DTR (Drechslera tritici-repentis). The variety is a valuable component for establishing grassland in industrial forage production.
