Profile

ROTINO originates from the new DSV tall fescue breeding and is one of DSV's first soft-leaved tall fescue varieties. Its special soft leafiness increases the acceptance of the cattle on the pasture. ROTINO has a late maturity and convinces with a high dry matter yield, especially in the later cuts, as well as a very good health due to the particularly low susceptibility to rust.
