Forage Sorghum and Sudan Grass

RGT Thrive

RGT Thrive is a new sudan grass hybrid, ideal for multiple grazings and hay.


The Power to Thrive

RGT Thrive is a sudan x sudan hybrid, combining good productivity, quick re-growth and medium maturity for summer forage and fodder conservation.

The increased tillering combined with thinner stems make it well suited for making quality hay and grazing by cattle and sheep. Under suitable growing conditions, the number of tillers on plants usually increases after each grazing or cutting. RGT Thrive has been bred and selected in Australia to provide a sudan grass hybrid with high feed value and stable high yields.
