FLYING A

Genetic Potential and Adaptability of "Flying A"

The "Flying A" ryegrass from the American breeding company Oregro Seeds is the result of highly specialized selection aimed at creating a versatile sward. The primary goal achieved by Oregro engineers is a critical balance between high nutritional value of the biomass and the durability of the root system under intensive grazing conditions.

Technical Features and Applications

• Grazing Potential: The plant demonstrates high regeneration rates after grazing. This is achieved through the low positioning of the tillering node, which protects the growing point from damage by livestock hooves and overgrazing.
• Versatility: Despite its primary focus on forage, the shoot density of "Flying A" makes it suitable for turf applications on sites subject to high foot traffic.
• Agronomic Profile: The variety is adapted to climates with variable moisture levels, supported by the deep root penetration characteristic of Oregro Seeds breeding programs.

Incorporating this variety into pasture mixes ensures a consistent sward throughout the growing season. A key advantage is the excellent fiber digestibility for ruminants, which directly correlates with improved productivity in dairy and beef operations.
