PESTRAYA 57 ALFALFA

Durability and Reliability in Field Management

«Pestraya 57» alfalfa is the choice for producers who prioritize crop longevity and minimal replanting efforts. Developed by the Federal Research Center for Biological Systems and Agrotechnologies, this variety is engineered to thrive under variable stress factors, ensuring that the field remains productive season after season.

Operational Efficiency

• Built-in Disease Resistance: The variety possesses high resistance to bacterial wilt, fusarium, and ascochyta. This biological armor significantly lowers the need for intensive fungicide applications, reducing both input costs and environmental footprint.
• Pest Management: By naturally deterring threats like phytonomus, alfalfa weevils, and seed chalcids, the variety maintains high biomass quality without the requirement for constant insecticide interventions.
• Machinery Compatibility: With a height range of 50–150 cm, this alfalfa provides an optimal growth structure. The stalks are robust and resistant to lodging, allowing for efficient harvesting with standard equipment and minimizing losses during mowing operations.

For the field operator, the core value of «Pestraya 57» lies in its regenerative capacity. Post-harvest regrowth is rapid, enabling consistent, multi-cut management throughout the growing season. Its reliable performance ensures that the forage supply remains stable, making it a sound long-term investment for any livestock-oriented operation.
