SARDI 10 Series 2 benefits from excellent winter growth and is a leader in grazing tolerance for a highly winter active lucerne.
During its development, the breeder was successful in focusing on improving the very popular SARDI 10. The greatest emphasis was on increasing forage production and quality, pest and disease resistance, persistence and grazing tolerance. A key physical feature is the increased leaf retention down the length of each stem. These advancements allow for even greater adaptability to Australian farming systems.
