DOBOS
Lolium perenne
Profile
DOBOS is an early, diploid perennial ryegrass variety with outstanding yield performance, significantly surpassing all comparable varieties in its segment even at the time of its registration. In the subsequent North-West regional variety trial, DOBOS confirmed its exceptional yield performance and has topped the North German recommendation list since 2024 with a total relative yield of 105. This high overall performance is based on both a strong first cut and convincing subsequent growth, and is reliably secured by good rust resistance.
Sowing rate: 40 kg/ha
- Top of Recommendation List North-West Germany
- Outstanding yield performance
