Festulolium
Achilles
Achilles ryegrass-type festulolium is a cross between Italian ryegrass and meadow fescue. The result is a variety with very vigorous spring growth and after cutting, but at the same time also demonstrates good persistence. Achilles belongs to the same group of festulolium as Paulita and Perun, but with 4-5 days earlier ear emergence. The high-quality forage is well suited for mixtures where an early cut is desired. Plants have good digestibility and disease resistance.
