KINEL 100

The Sudan grass variety «Kinel 100» is the result of long-term breeding and mass selection at specialized stations. Plants reach a height of 145–187 cm, exhibit strong bushiness with several aerial shoots, ensuring a dense sowing layer structure. Leaves are light, tender, narrow (2–3 cm) and short, while stems are thin and non-rough, making the grass easy to process when preparing for curing.

Kinel 100 is characterized by accelerated initial growth and high drought resistance. The vegetative period lasts 75–85 days, after which maximum biomass is achieved: up to 35 tons/hectare of green mass, 8.5 tons/hectare of hay, and 2.2 tons of seeds per hectare. The mass of 1000 seeds ranges from 13.5 to 14.5 g, ensuring good sowing density.

Forage quality is high: green mass contains 14–16% protein and 39–44% non-nitrogenous extractives, with sugar content ranging from 12.9–14.3%. During drying, protein content is 9–12%, and digestible protein is 1.4–1.6 kg/100 kg of feed. Due to these properties, the variety is suitable for producing hay, silage, green feed, and grazing, and can also be used in the production of hay meal and pellets.

The compacted structure of the sowing layer and high yield make «Kinel 100» a sought-after choice for farmers seeking maximum productivity with moderate care costs. The sowing rate is 20–30 kg/hectare, ensuring optimal field coverage and seed loss minimization.
