Mammoth orchardgrass is a medium-early maturing variety bred for high forage production as well as tolerance to weather extremes. Mammoth has performed well in diverse climates with extreme weather such as Alberta, Missouri, and Northern California. These climates have tested the ability to withstand heat, drought, and severe winters.

Mammoth is suited to both pasture and hay production. It has high fall growth as well, as demonstrated by a high fall cutting in most trials. Use Mammoth for maximum production in a limited amount of time. It produces high amounts of forage in the first harvest with a high capacity for re-growth. It will produce high amounts of forages in subsequent cuts as well.

Troy Kentucky Bluegrass is one of the most cold tolerant forage grade Kentucky bluegrasses on the market today. Very palatable for animals and has rhizomes so it helps keep pasture thick as wear and tear occurrs. Excellent winter hardiness as well as good disease resistance.

Climax timothy is an old standy by when it comes to pasture blends. is a winter hardy bunchgrass that is easy to establish, and is well known for premium horse hay.

Timothy is easy to establish new pastures, and to overseed old pastures that need rejuventated.
