Benefits of HP Dairy Mix Bare

  • Late heading (+20 days) maintains quality later into spring.
  • Fine-leaved with dense tillers, improving palatability and persistence.
  • Animal-safe - contains AR1 endophyte, which won't cause grass staggers or heat stress.
  • Contains a combination of medium and large-leaved white clover, providing high pasture production paired with added persistence.
  • Sowing rate: 25kg/ha
  • Sowing dates: Autumn and spring
  • Ploidy: Diploid ryegrass
  • Insect tolerance: Argentine stem weevil, pasture mealybug

AR1 protects plants from Argentine Stem Weevil and Pasture Mealy Bug with a limited defence against Black Beetle and no protection against Root Aphid, Porina, and Grass Grub.

AR1 is discouraged for use in the upper North Island due to its susceptibility to Black Beetle invasions, which could lead to the destruction of all ryegrass.
