Bisset Bluegrass Seed Coated Seed per Kg RVD

Bisset Bluegrass (Bothriochloa insculpta) is a warm-season perennial pasture grass well suited to grazing systems in subtropical and tropical regions. It is valued for its persistence, grazing tolerance and ability to establish on a range of soil types.

Bisset Bluegrass can provide productive summer grazing once established and is particularly useful in pasture improvement programs where a hardy, persistent perennial grass is required. It can be planted as a standalone grass or incorporated into a pasture seed mix with compatible grasses and legumes.

Key Features

• Warm-season perennial pasture grass
• Persistent under grazing once established
• Suitable for subtropical and tropical grazing areas
• Adapted to a range of soil types
• Useful for cattle grazing and pasture improvement
• Can be incorporated into mixed pasture sowings
• Produces useful summer forage when moisture and growing conditions are favourable

Establishment

For best results, sow into a well-prepared, weed-free seedbed with good seed-to-soil contact. Bisset Bluegrass seed should be sown shallowly, as excessive planting depth can reduce establishment. Sowing rates and timing should be selected according to soil type, rainfall, location and whether the seed is being planted alone or as part of a pasture blend.
