CRUSADER ITALIAN RYEGRASS is fast establishing
and persistent, even through cool and wet weather,
making it perfect for overseeding in early spring to add
quality and quantity to your pasture.

Crusader excels as a companion crop with alfalfa
or clover, as it establishes quickly and matures later, adding bulk to your hay crop.

A diploid ryegrass, Crusader has a 50% lower seeding rate than tetraploid ryegrass, so you’ll save money before the seed is even in the ground.

Early spring growth combined with a later maturity date means a longer hay production  time while maintaining quality.  

Crusader can be the solution to maximize production and profits  for your operation.  Crusader Italian Ryegrass is able to persist through the wet, soggy spring and the hot summer with a dense, fast growing grass
to provide high quality
grazing, hay and silage production.

When it counts, farmers trust Crusader’s CERTIFIED characteristics to carry them through with feed when they need it most.
