Variety traits

Yield — Orchardgrass

Dactylis glomerata L.

Orchardgrass yield is characterized by high regrowth potential, allowing for 2 to 5 cuts per season, and the ability to maintain productivity in a stand for 8–10 years.

In the reference 70 varieties crop Cocksfoot, where this is mentioned in the description.

The yield of the crop is estimated by the mass of green matter and dry matter, measured in centners or tonnes per hectare. Green matter ranges from 200 to 500 c/ha, while dry matter indicators average 5–12 t/ha, reaching 25 t/ha in the most promising breeding lines.

The high productivity of orchardgrass is ensured by its ability for early spring regrowth and rapid recovery after mowing or grazing. Yield potential is closely linked to nitrogen nutrient availability, moisture levels, and the intensity of utilization within a green forage supply chain.
