WINTER HARDY AND PRODUCTIVE
From widely separated spots across the U.S. come continuing reports of the
winter-hardiness of Bison Intermediate Ryegrass as well as its ability
to produce highly palatable, easily digestible forage for beef and dairy cattle
FAST GERMINATING
Under normal conditions, Bison will germinate in a matter of 7-10 day s, quickly
become a vigorous seedling and develop a strong root system.
OFFERS UNUSUAL VERSATILITY
Bison is at its best when sown in combination with Medistan & Lancaster Plus
for long-term pasture or hay production. However, it can be used alone for short
rotation pasture or hay production or as green chop or plow-down.
Bison is so aggressive you can seed less!!
