Siran is a more leafier variety than Seca, and is a composite of 3 bred or selected lines (‘Jecuipe’, ‘Recife’, ‘Feira’) to provide multiple-gene resistance to anthracnose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"c1-id-41\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\"\u003eSiran is adapted to a wider variety of conditions when compared to Seca, and produces a large quantity of highly nutritious feed for the dry season.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"c1-id-43\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\"\u003eUsed in perennial pasture, in grassland or open woodland.

However, it may be advantageous to graze heavily following burning and oversowing to reduce competition for the developing seedlings from established perennial grasses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"c1-id-65\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\"\u003ePerformance:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"c1-id-67\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\"\u003eDry-matter yields on poor soils in a low rainfall area may be less than 1 t\/ha, but up to 10 t\/ha under more ideal conditions.\u003cbr id=\"c1-id-30\"\u003eIn grass\/legume pastures it can contribute 2-7 t\/ha DM.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"c1-id-69\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\"\u003eAnimal Production:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp id=\"c1-id-70\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\"\u003eAnnual liveweight gains of 140-160 kg\/hd can be achieved from grass\/legume pastures.\u003cbr id=\"c1-id-33\"\u003eNutritive value declines with age, leaf crude protein from 20 to 10%, P from 0.3 to 0.1% and IVDMD from 70 to 50%.
