AberDart HSG Ryegrass
AberDart HSG is a high quality grass which stands
out from standard ryegrasses. This diploid perennial ryegrass is
unique because it contains more sugar, making it more palatable
than its competitors; therefore stock cannot get enough of it. This
leads to increased meat and milk production.
Suitable for all stock classes and rational grazing systems;
endophyte free or with AR1. AberDart HSG will provide a high
quality pasture, for high animal performance, stock finishing,
flushing and silage making.
