Very high yields, super quality plus
unsurpassed standabllity! Attention Stand Fast™
is leading the way to higher productivity.
Attention is ready to cut 3 to 5 days earlier than other Fall Dormancy 4&5
varieties which makes it ideal for mixing with our late heading grasses. Under
aggressive management, Attention will likely give an extra cutting for the year
and still persist. In private testing under aggressive management at Rock
Springs, Attention yielded Just over 10 tons of dry matter!
