BARAULA’s late heading will change the way farmers think about orchardgrass. Its late
heading makes it superb for mixing with alfalfa. BARAULA has been proven to be later
maturing than Satin orchardgrass.
• VERY late heading.
Not as clumpy as Pennlate and other varieties.
Does not head out much in second cutting, even if cut before heading in first cutting.
Soft leaves
Very leafy
High yields
Does not crowd out alfalfa as fast as
most varieties
