Bluegrass TAMBOWETS

Stable Grass Stand for Quality Fodder

When selecting seed material for creating durable pastures or hayfields, choosing time-tested varieties pays off over several years. The "Tambovets" meadow grass, developed by the specialists at ONO Morshansk Breeding Station, is a workhorse for farms that prioritize stability and high nutritional value of forage.

Practical Cultivation Experience

The first thing an agronomist notes when working with this variety is its predictability. "Tambovets" demonstrates excellent establishment, which is critical when sowing forage lands. In variable climatic conditions, resistance to major pathogens becomes a key factor for crop survival. The variety holds its ground firmly against helminthosporiosis and powdery mildew, allowing for reduced spending on fungicide treatments and minimizing the risks of yield loss.

Economic Feasibility

• Reliability: Thanks to the work of the originators at FRC VIC named after V.R. Williams and the Morshansk Breeding Station, the genetic potential of the variety is adapted to local soil and climatic conditions.
• Forage Value: As a typical representative of the forage type, "Tambovets" ensures a high protein yield and good palatability for livestock.
• Resistance: High immunity to fungal diseases allows the variety to maintain productivity even in years with high humidity, when other crops might be vulnerable to infections.

Maintaining a grass stand with "Tambovets" does not require specific, complex agronomic techniques. It is a classic forage crop that responds to standard agronomy with active tillering and rapid regrowth after mowing. In long-term operation, this results in a dense turf that is resistant to livestock trampling and successfully suppresses weed growth, ultimately reducing overall pasture maintenance costs.
