BRAZgrass provides a dryland cultivar as well as an irrigation cultivar.
This shows the improvement over the past ten years with BRAZgrass being fed to the animals in drought-stricken areas. If farmers plant it this year, they can be guaranteed of enough feed for the next eight to ten years. Through the ten years that they have been at NAMPO they have proven their longevity through the driest and wettest year in a century.
