Annual ryegrass

ALISCA

For profitable and structured quality feed

Benefits:

  • Improvement of the ground tilth by good shading and intensive rooting
  • Strong initial development - already after 6 to 8 weeks ALISCA provides succulent, energy-rich and highly digestible fodder
  • The late ripening time makes ALISCA flexible in the harvest
  • Very good leaf-stalk-relation and balanced ratio of sugar and crude protein give an excellent, well-structured quality silage
  • ALISCA is a tetraploid variety - recommended in Northern Germany
  • Low susceptibility to rust saves products and work costs
  • Good regrowth skill - reuse is possible as grazing
  • ALISCA excellently utilizes liquid green manure and binds the nutrients in organic mass
