Contains AR37 and NEA2 endophytes.

Ryegrass containing the AR37 endophyte offers superior protection against a range of insects, including the Argentine Stem Weevil, Pasture Mealy Bug, Root Aphid, Black Beetle, and Porina.

AR37 can cause ryegrass staggers.

AR37 endophyte is not suitable for deer or horse pastures.

NEA2 offers protection from pasture mealy bug, some protection against Argentine stem weevil and black beetle, and weak protection against root aphid.

NEA2 does not cause ryegrass staggers.
