Annual Yield

SHANDON offers exceptional output throughout the year. This provides the grower with an extra half a tonne of dry matter per hectare compared to a similar variety such as Premium! 

Persistency

SHANDON achieved the highest score for persistency in the intermediate group in recommended list trials in Ireland. At a time when summers appear to be getting more wet, this crucial factor helps to prevent sward poaching by grazing animals and ensures continuity of performance.

Seasonal Distribution of Yield

SHANDON has exceptional spring growth and maintains consistent output throughout the year, providing forage in the vital summer and autumn months.
