Timothy grass variety TIMOTORF is a high-yield, cold-hardy crop suitable for field and meadow sowing in forest-steppe and steppe zones. Seeds germinate at temperatures of 1–2 °C, and growth begins when the average daily temperature rises to 5–6 °C. The plant is moisture-loving: it withstands flooding with spring water for up to 30 days and grows well on clayey, moist soils, including drained peatlands. At high nitrogen rates, yield increases sharply without compromising quality.
Variety TIMOTORF belongs to reproduction class RC3 and has a seed purity of no less than 90% and germination of more than 75%. Seeds are packed in big-bags and comply with GOST 52325‑2005. Due to its characteristics, Timothy grass TIMOTORF is widely used as a forage crop: green mass and hay are easily consumed by livestock.
Timothy grass is a hexaploid variety in which flowering is almost absent or occurs very slowly. In the second year of life, the plant remains semi-prostrate: leaves are green and narrow, stems are short, and the upper internode and inflorescence are of medium length. These features make the variety suitable for creating decorative lawns with a dense, compact structure.
