Forage value of hybrid ryegrass

Lolium x hybridum Hausskn.

Hybrid ryegrass combines the high yield potential of Italian ryegrass with the winter hardiness and longevity of perennial ryegrass, ensuring high dry matter digestibility in silage and haylage.

In the reference 81 varieties crop Hybrid ryegrass, where this is mentioned in the description.

Hybrid ryegrass is characterized by a high spring regrowth rate and late stem elongation, which extends the optimal harvest window for high-quality forage. The crop exhibits better drought tolerance compared to Italian ryegrass and is capable of forming a dense stand.

Depending on the intended use, three biotypes of hybrid ryegrass are distinguished: multi-cut with an erect habit, pasture with dense turf, and intermediate. Intensive management of stands and fertilizer application allow the crop to consistently provide quality forage for livestock farms.
