Kentaur Perennial Ryegrass

 

Description

Kentaur is a medium-late maturing tetraploid perennial ryegrass, delivering high dry matter yield when used for silage, hay, or pasture. Kentaur provides excellent forage quality and consistency.

Being a tetraploid, Kentaur grows tall and tillers well, giving it the ability to recover after cutting. Kentaur’s higher sugar content supports ensiling, increasing its overall flexibility and making this variety a top choice for the livestock and/or forage producer
