We have used Winter Bite for the last few years and intend to continue to use this. Production during the critical winter period has been fantastic and our cows really milk well on this grass. Mark Gale Timboon, VIC

Tetraploid Grasses

The cells of tetraploid grasses are larger than those of diploids, leading to a higher percentage of cell contents relative to cell walls. This has positive effects in terms of palatability and nutritional value of a plant, including metabolisable energy content, although differences are generally not significant compared to diploids.

Grazing AR1 Perennial Pasture

An AR1™ type endophyte infected ryegrass is generally more palatable than a standard endophyte type of the same cultivar and does not deter overgrazing.
