Roots
Changing environmental and climatic conditions challenge your forage production. Grasses that can better handle spring and early summer drought will result in a healthy and high yielding crop.
Timothy
Timothy is a cool-season perennial grass with high persistency and cold tolerance and rarely suffer frost damage. It grows mostly in moist soil with erect bunches, 0,50 m up to 1.3 m tall consisting of smooth and hairless, pale green to greyish-green leaves. It has a high yield potential already very early in season. One of its characteristic is its fast growth rate relative to other grasses, which enables it to accumulate quite a lot of biomass before stem formation. Fast growing also means a more narrower harvest window for optimal forage quality. Timothy is highly palatable and produces high quality forage for hay and grazing. It is often grown in mixtures with legumes such as alfalfa or clover for better performance, but it is also grown in pure stands to make premium hay, notably for horses. Commercial cultivars with improved agronomic properties such as pest resistance and winter hardiness are available.
