Festulolium
Lofa
Lofa was developed in the Czech Republic by crossing Italian Ryegrass with tall fescue. Selection was then based on ryegrass type plants showing high forage quality and fast growth. The result is plant that looks like a ryegrass, with the performance of an improved hybrid ryegrass.
Festulolium 4N types deliver early growth, high yield, and persistence, while 6N types provide excellent forage quality and resilience. Both enhance pastures and hay fields with superior performance.
DLF Fiber Energy™ varieties feature enriched fiber digestibility, focusing on improving cell wall components to boost feed efficiency. These forages offer up to a 2% increase in digestibility, translating to more milk or meat production and reduced methane emissions.
Key features
- Looks like a ryegrass, with the performance of an improved hybrid ryegrass
- Tremendous 1st year DM yield continues high yield into 2nd and 3rd year
- High forage quality
- Winter cold survival better than hybrid ryegrass, comparable to perennial ryegrass
