Perennial Ryegrass:
Perennial ryegrass is used
both as a permanent and annual grass for lawns, parks, recreational
areas, erosion control. It has found popularity used as a fall /
spring beautification grass coverage, for polo fields, all athletic fields and any area that needs a tough quick coverage.
Ryegrass
can be grown in single stands for all purposes or in mixtures with bluegrass and fescues
for better quality coverage. This mixture is very popular in higher traffic areas and athletic fields of all kinds, in
the areas of adaptation.. Tough and resilient, perennial rye grass has been improved
over the years and has greatly benefited the lawn and pasture scene with its
wearability factors, plus disease and insect resistance. Perennial ryegrass makes a
great overseeding grass to use Bermuda grasses so as to provide a winter lawn and
optimum early spring playing conditions for athletic fields and golf courses. Any
place where a quick "green" look is desired.
Perennial is one of the most impact
resistant grasses that can be planted.
Overseeded Perennials grow
successfully at lower mowing heights than annuals. But their
persistence as a perennial require more expertise management to get
this ryegrass to transition (die out) when spring green up of the
warm season grass begins.
PERENNIAL RYEGRASS - FORAGE USAGE: On the forage scene Perennial ryegrass can be
grown as a permanent pasture or for forage, haying, silage, and as a
ground cover crops to extend the
grazing season. Permanent pastures of perennial rye have been planted worldwide and
are being improved upon as research progresses. Perennial rye is one of the most palatable
livestock grasses, highly digestible and a prolific crop for hay and silage purposes.
It stands heavy grazing in well planted stands that are properly managed. Perennial is easily
grown from seed and quick to germinate. One of the better pasture grasses that can stand
up to heavy hoof damage. Rye grass varieties are well know for the "companion"
aspects for planting and overseeding with other forage crops.
ANNUAL RYEGRASS
Annual ryegrass is primarily used on all
grass covers needing a winter/fall/spring overseeding while the permanent grass is in the
dormancy stage. Many warm season grass lawns are overseeded with annual ryegrass for
winter greenery and earlier spring coverage in cooler areas. One of the easiest grasses to
sow onto existing permanent lawns, fast germinating, lasts one season and dies
off easy, creating less transition problems.
Ryegrass is one of the main grasses used for a fast erosion control preventative measures
in all lawn restoration and new lawn establishment.
The low cost of annual rye at this
time allows for several seedings on single stands in really high erosion
prone sites. One
application followed a week later by a second lighter application will give very good
coverage for land clearing on hilly or banked sites. Ryegrass is a component of many
grass mixtures due to germination rates, early growth and is easily seeded by
broadcasting or mechanical means.

ANNUAL RYEGRASS AGRICULTURE USAGE
Annual ryegrass is one of the most palatable grasses and highly
digestible for all livestock. Annual ryegrass along with perennial is grown all over the
world in the areas of adaptation for pastures, haying, silage. Annual ryegrass is
planted alone for single short term pastures or overseeded into existing stands of warm
season forages for winter pastures. Although a short term grass the amount of forage
material grown compensates for the life of the plant. With fertilizer and
water requirements met this is one of the best short term crop used as forages and hay
production. Millions of acres are grown worldwide in ryegrass.
WILDLIFE - Annual ryegrass is one of
the main components of many wildlife plantings as forage and early cover.
Ryegrass can easily
attract the wildlife to a feeding site before the full foraging material matures.
Easily broadcast into most existing plant stands helps to jump start
attraction of deer and other wildlife to food plots. Annual rye also
has shown promise as a feed source for the stocked fish pond market.
