LÜDELIS

Lüdelis is a winter-hardy lucerne (Medicago sativa) variety, valued for its high protein content and other nutrients, making it an excellent forage crop for cattle. It is characterized by good bushiness, high leaf coverage, and rapid, uniform development from early spring. Thanks to its powerful, deeply penetrating root system, Lüdelis demonstrates resilience to adverse conditions, including acidic and sandy soils, and maintains high yields even on less fertile soils. This variety features high productivity: average dry matter yield in green mass reaches over 100 centners per hectare in favorable regions. Lüdelis can yield up to five cuts per season, ensuring stable and abundant forage. It can be grown pure or in mixtures with other grasses, expanding usage possibilities from green fodder to hay and silage. Additionally, Lüdelis lucerne serves as natural green fertilizer, improving soil structure and fertility. The variety possesses high resistance to main lucerne diseases, such as verticillium, anthracnose, and fusarium, promoting long-term crop longevity and reducing the need for chemical protection. Dense sward prevents weed development, easing crop care. Lüdelis is also attractive to bees, which can promote pollination and maintain biodiversity on agricultural lands.
