Each of our Farm Source pasture packs contain a specialised mix of seed to meet the variations in insect control, climate, soil type, paddock use and farm facilities to deliver the best possible results.
All seed in our pasture packs have been cool stored in facilities that exceed industry standards and have been tested to ensure high levels of active endophyte.
Array NEA2 is bred for the good of both animals, and the environment. Delivering a unique mix of high intake, yield, nitrogen uptake and persistence, this is the diploid of the future.
Array is the diploid perennial ryegrass hard-working cows have been hoping for. Upright, leafy and densely tillered, it’s customised for easy eating and high intake.
Chomping through thousands of bites every day demands a lot of physical energy! Array takes some of the effort out of this process, because it stands tall and dense, literally puts itself closer to those hungry mouths.
Animals will naturally eat more as a result, and have more time to relax, ruminate and produce meat or milk.
Array has the best cool season growth of any perennial ryegrass Barenbrug has bred.
That helps fill the gap when feed is short and makes farms more resilient so they can adapt to shifting climatic patterns.
Array NEA2 has Barenbrug’s highest ranking for pasture persistence. It’s as good as Maxsyn NEA4.
In trials, Array has grown significantly more feed under low N conditions than other ryegrass cultivars.
First, more even pasture growth at times when soil nitrogen is deficient, something that happens on virtually every farm at some stage during the year. Second, a win for the environment, because this provides the potential to utilise nitrogen more efficiently.
