The yield of Westerwold ryegrass characterizes the productivity of the crop in an intensive annual cycle. The indicator is determined by the output of green mass and dry matter over several cuts during a growing period of 65 to 80 days.

crop Westerwolds Ryegrass,
where this is mentioned in the description.
The total productivity of Westerwold ryegrass under favorable conditions reaches 500–700 c/ha of green mass per season. The dry matter yield under intensive cultivation conditions is about 6.6–8.5 t/ha. The crop is distinguished by a high rate of mass formation, which allows for the first cut 35–45 days after sowing and ensures a total of up to three cuts during the growing season.
The realization of yield potential directly depends on the level of nitrogen nutrition and moisture availability. Failure to meet agrotechnical requirements, particularly in the case of nitrogen deficiency or insufficient irrigation on arid soils, significantly reduces crop productivity, which requires taking these factors into account to achieve planned indicators of nutritional value and digestible protein yield.
