Sub Clover

Yanco

Yanco is a mid-season sub clover providing a new and improved replacement for Riverina, Trikkala and Monti (ssp. yanninicum).

BETTER SEED REGENERATION AND DISEASE RESISTANCE FOR MORE FEED

Yanco is well adapted to moderately acidic (pH CaCl2 4.5-6.5) soils prone to waterlogging and to loamy and clay soils with good water retention.

It is highly resistant to both Race 1 and 2 of clover scorch (Kabatiella caulivora) and that coupled with its outstanding seeding ability, ensures highest autumn-winter forage yields and high total yields.

It is best suited to areas with approximately 450-700 mm annual average rainfall and where the growing season extends into November.

Yanco is suitable for permanent and semi-permanent pastures. It can be used in cropping rotations, but at least two years of pasture are required between crops

Suited to all livestock types, silage and hay
