FEATURED GRASSES
RENK CARRIES ELITE VARIETIES OF THE FOLLOWING GRASSES:
MINT FESTULOLIUM
Festulolium is a cross between Perennial Ryegrass and Meadow Fescue, giving it several very
excellent qualities: ease of establishment, persistence, rapid regrowth, good disease
resistance, season-long performance and high forage quality. Don’t let the long name put you
off. If you need a grass, use Festulolium.
STOUT ORCHARDGRASS
A late maturing variety that keeps its quality when seeded with alfalfa. Also does extremely
well when frost-seeded into a thinning pasture.
TIMOTHY
Fits well in clover and alfalfa mixes. Highly palatable. Horses love it.
ANNUAL RYEGRASS
Works well when seeding down with alfalfa at 3-5 lbs per acre. Very high palatability allows
more milk per acre yields. Best as a cover crop.
PERENNIAL RYEGRASS
Ideal for long term pastures. High palatability and fast recovery allows for intensive grazing
management and higher milk production.
MEADOW BROME
Quicker to establish than Smooth Brome and provides higher yields of more palatable forage
especially in the seeding year.
