advaNCed <strong>Grass</strong>es tM /GrOMax<br />

Advanced grass breeding crosses fescues<br />

with ryegrass to create a combination of high<br />

quality forage grass with good winter hardiness,<br />

persistence and stress tolerance.<br />

As a result of crossing/backcrossing & selection <strong>Countrywide</strong> can offer types similar to italian & hybrid ryegrass, all with<br />

improved characteristics taken from the parent crossings.<br />

• Good stress & drought tolerance<br />

• 2-3 year persistence for advanced<br />

italian ryegrass<br />

• advanced hybrid ryegrass is 1-2 years<br />

more persistent than hybrid ryegrass<br />

• early spring growth<br />

• very quick aftercut recovery<br />

• very rapid establishment<br />

• uk trials show advanced italian ryegrass<br />

yields are up to 31% more dM/ha than<br />

perennial ryegrass<br />

• uk trials show advanced hybrid ryegrass<br />

yields are up to 25% more dM/ha than<br />

perennial ryegrass<br />

Unlike iSeed ® , biostimulants do not offer the<br />

benefit of added nutrients; they simply assist the<br />

<strong>seed</strong>ling’s ability to take advantage of the soil’s own<br />

inherent reserves of nutrient by stimulating the<br />

soil’s microflora, resulting in improved root growth<br />

and establishment.<br />

GroMax is a dry formulation of natural humates and humic acids, seaweed extract, a proprietary blend of natural sugars<br />

(sucrose), vitamins (B complex & K) soluble potash and buffering agents. The product is compatible with most micro-nutrients,<br />

fertilisers and pesticides.<br />

The main <strong>Countrywide</strong> mixtures are treated with GroMax at no extra cost. GroMax inclusion is indicated by the GroMax logo
