Ryegrass milkweed forage plant (Imported Certified)
Italian Ryegrass, the miracle plant that will solve the roughage problem of animals, has now started to be grown in Turkey. Feed costs are reduced to a minimum with the plant recommended as a solution to the roughage problem of producers engaged in small and cattle breeding.
Providing 10 to 15 tons of green grass production per decare, the plant is among the more valuable forages than alfalfa with its high nutritional value.
SEED BED: It should be flat, leveled and compacted.
SEED QUANTITY: 5 kg/Decare
ROW SPACING: There should be spacing or 10-17.5 cm row spacing.
PLANTING DEPTH: 1.5-2 cm
Planting of the plant is done both in autumn and spring. With ryegrass, which is an annual plant, 5 to 8 mowings can be made in irrigated areas, while 2-3 mowings can be made in dry lands. Ryegrass plant, which is a plant loved by animals, is used especially in feeding cows, sheep, buffalos, goats and horses.

WHEN TO PLANT REYGRASS HERB?
In summary, it is planted in autumn in temperate regions. It is planted in spring in regions with harsh winters. In cool and rainy regions, spring planting should be done as early as possible. In other words, planting time is September-October in the Aegean, Mediterranean, Black Sea and Marmara regions, and late August, early September or March-April in the Central and Eastern Anatolia regions. In other words, in regions with harsh winters, it is planted in early spring or at the end of summer to survive the winter strongly. It is beneficial to plant it in autumn in the Aegean, Mediterranean, Marmara and transition regions where winter cold does not come early. In spring plantings in our regions where the Mediterranean climate prevails, early summer drought and high temperatures may cause early earing of reygras and low grass yield.
What is its difference compared to other forage crops?
It provides a 20 percent increase in milk production compared to alfalfa and other roughage. Experts who have tried ryegrass state that it leads to positive developments in fertility, nail and foot health and mastitis in animals.
Like other forages, the plant fed to animals as silage, hay or daily green, is among the most commonly planted forage crops in Europe.
