Forage Brassica

RGT Hybra

RGT Hybra is a true F1 hybrid forage brassica cultivar from RAGT. Setting a new benchmark for superior forage yields.


SUPERIOR FORAGE YIELDS

Introducing RGT Hybra – a true F1 Hybrid Forage brassica which has been dominating yield trials Australia wide.

Under evaluation in Australian conditions since 2019, RGT Hybra continues to produce excellent yields across variable soil types, environments and seasons. Forage quality tests have also confirmed its exceptional quality, and are available on request.

These exceptional results are an outcome of hybrid vigor, also known as heterosis. This is the biological phenomenon where offspring of genetically different parents show enhanced characteristics. These hybrid offspring display superior qualities, such as faster growth or higher yield, when compared to their inbred parents. The hybrid’s performance often exceeds that of the better parent, arising from the specific combination of genes inherited from its diverse parents.
