Fortress

Three to four year heavy production, with early growth Grazing Silage Hay

Average Heading Date: 22nd May

Fortress is a three to four year, heavy production silage mixture. It provides good early spring growth for an early cut or graze. The mix is quick growing and produces high yields, which means it is ideally suited for silage, with some aftermath grazing potential. The high tetraploid content increases water soluble carbohydrate levels which will aid silage fermentation.
