Improved Summer/Autumn Yields

Improved Flexibility
Flexibility is messured as the number of days between 30 cm height of grass in the spring, and the heading date. A high number of days, as for ALIGOTE, gives a long period with high quality of the harvested grass.
Superior Rust Resistance
Attack of rust is lowering the quality and the palatability of the grass considerable. As it can be seen from the official trials ALIGOTE is fortuned with a high resistance to rust.
