Rosabrook

Sub Clover

Rosabrook

Rosabrook was developed by the National Annual Pasture Legume Improvement Program (NAPLIP) as a replacement for cv. Denmark with improved cotyledon tolerance to Redlegged Earth Mite (RLEM).

NEW BREAKTHROUGH REDLEGGED EARTH MITE TOLERANT SUB CLOVER FOR INCREASING PASTURE LEGUME CONTENT

Rosabrook results from a single backcross, with cv. Denmark as the recurrent parent, and has a flowering time of 143 days from an early May sowing in Perth, the same as Denmark.

Rosabrook is suited to well drained, moderately acid (pH CaCl2 4.5–6.5) soils in areas of southern Australia where the growing season extends to mid-late November, corresponding to a minimum annual rainfall of approximately 600 mm.

It is well suited to permanent pasture systems, but should regenerate strongly following occasional years in crop. It is not suited to 1:1 crop/pasture rotations.

Suited to all livestock types, silage and hay

Features

  • High yeilding
  • Late flowering
  • Cotyledon redlegged earthmite resistance

Benefits

  • Improved establishment. Greater first year yields.
  • Reduced need for insecticide application costs
  • Produces more feed in high rainfall zone
  • Produces more feed per hectare. Produces lower cost feed

Rouse is well adapted to moderately acidic (pH CaCl2 4.5-6.5) soils prone to waterlogging and 550- 900 mm annual rainfall and where the growing season extends to mid-late November.

Suited to all livestock types, silage and hay

Features

  • Mid-late flowering
  • Sub species yanninicum
  • High seed yields
  • Moderate hard seed levels

Benefits

Rozen

Annual Ryegrass

Rozen

Rozen is a new improved late maturity diploid annual ryegrass.

High Performance Annual Ryegrass

Rozen  is a new highly winter active annual ryegrass, developed in Europe to replace the highly successful Sultan . It has excellent seedling vigour making it suitable for sowing into either clean paddocks or over-sowing into sub-tropical pastures including setaria and kikuyu.
Rozen  has similar forage yields and maturity to Sultan , but much improved resistance to a range of diseases including crown rust, brown rust and powdery mildew.
As a diploid Rozen  is a densely tillered variety which will better withstand periods of winter dry conditions as its narrower leaf blades lose less moisture through evapotranspiration. This also enables it to cure faster for making high quality hay.
Rozen  can be sown as the sole ryegrass at lower sowing rates than tetraploids, but can also be mixed with tetraploids in a 40/60 mix to develop a strong sward with the early production from the tetraploid, but with later density and production from the diploid.

Suited to all livestock types, silage and hay

Features

  • Diploid annual ryegrass
  • Excellent seedling vigour
  • High winter activity
  • Excellent disease tolerance

Benefits

  • Fine, densely tillered, better suited to hay than tetraploids
  • More feed when it is needed most
  • Fast establishing, including over-sowing sub-tropical pastures

Speedyl

Annual Ryegrass

Speedyl

Speedyl has been selected after its outstanding performance in trials against commercial standards and breeders’ trial lines.

High Performance Annual Ryegrass

Speedyl establishes rapidly and will provide fast winter feed, but importantly will produce high levels of quality feed later into the season than other annuals.

It is later flowering than other commercial cultivars and holds its leaf even during heading. Its feed quality is outstanding from early winter until late in the season.

Speedyl continues to have outstanding performance in both the MLA PTN trials and the Dairy Australia FVI.

A solid performer backed by years of consistent data.

Suited to all livestock types, silage and hay

Tammin

Sub Clover

Tammin

Tammin is a more persistent and resilient early flowering subterraneum clover(ssp. subterraneum).

Tammin also has a much slower breakdown of hard seed in the autumn making it able to handle false breaks. It will still have 15% hard seed after 3 years, improving its ability to recover in short cropping phase rotations.
