Practical Scenarios for Your Farm

• Long-term Fodder Security. This variety is known for its excellent regrowth capacity after mowing. If your goal is to establish a perennial hayfield that provides 3–4 stable cuts per season for 4–5 years, «Intryha» provides the necessary crop density and durability.
• Intensive Forage Production. Due to high leaf-to-stem ratios, this variety is highly valued by livestock farms. The resulting hay offers high protein levels, which is crucial for balanced dairy cattle diets and maximizing milk yield.
• Climate Resilience. Developed by the BGI (National Center of Seed Science and Cultivar Investigation), this variety is tailored for the specific conditions of Ukraine. It shows strong performance in drought-prone areas, maintaining productivity despite water limitations.

When planning your sowing, ensure proper soil preparation and early-stage weed control. Once established, «Intryha Odeska» creates a dense, competitive canopy that suppresses weeds and withstands varying temperature regimes, making it a reliable workhorse for your crop rotation.
