Profile

RUBATO is a very early timothy variety. Therefore it shows a very high dry matter production at the beginning. This leads finally to interesting yields, especially in the first cut. Good persistence, sward density and winter hardiness are other interesting characteristics of this special timothy variety. RUBATO can be very good combined with early to medium perennial ryegrass varieties.
