ANACONDA Tetraploid Perennial Ryegrass
(Forage Variety)

Anaconda is setting a new standard for improved Tetraploid perennial Ryegrass, becoming one of the leading choices in both Europe and North America in a forage grass.  Anaconda has demonstrated improved performance over Bastion in key areas including winter hardiness, spring growth and total forage yield.

MORE ABOUT PERENNIAL RYEGRASS FORAGES

Anaconda was developed by a leading Dutch breeding program.  It is resistant to mildew and crown rust and is very persistent.  It has excellent compatibility with legumes and out performs Alfalfa and Orchardgrass in providing digestible dry matter and crude protein.  Anaconda is safe for horses and is used for all classes of livestock.

Life of Anaconda depends on temperatures and location planted.  In cooler Northern State areas it can be a mid-range perennial, living 4-5 years.  Anaconda should NOT be used in warm seasons areas (Southern States) with the expectation that it will be a Perennial.  In warm areas it would perform the same as annuals and die out with summer heat.  You should plant an improved forage annual in warm areas.

Plant 30-40 lbs / Acre.
