Fescue JAMBORI

Why Jamboree became the top choice for forage production

When it comes to establishing a long-term pasture or preparing haylage, finding the right balance between yield and nutritional value is no small feat. Tall fescue variety "Jamboree" from the Danish breeder DLF addresses this challenge through its unique adaptability to tough growing conditions.

Stress tolerance and endurance

Unlike classic grasses, Jamboree performs exceptionally well in both waterlogged areas and dry, nutrient-poor soils. Its deep root system allows it to withstand drought periods without losing green mass, which is critical for maintaining a stable fodder balance.

Operational features and productivity

• Rapid regrowth: The sward recovers quickly after each cut, allowing for 3–4 full harvests per season with proper management.
• Haylage quality: Jamboree tall fescue features a high sugar content, making the ensiling process more predictable and efficient.
• Longevity: This perennial crop maintains high productivity in the stand for 5–7 years with proper care, significantly reducing re-seeding costs.

When harvesting, keep in mind the stem structure: it is quite dense, so we recommend setting your mower-conditioner for more aggressive conditioning to speed up the wilting process in the swath. When nitrogen fertilization protocols are followed, Jamboree delivers a consistently high yield of dry matter that is readily consumed by livestock due to its improved fiber digestibility compared to wild-type species.
