Research by the Institute for Agricultural, Fisheries and Food Research (ILVO) in Belgium has shown that new varieties of Italian ryegrass are outperforming older ones in terms of yield, persistence, rust resistance, and digestibility. The trial, which involved growing all grass varieties registered in Belgium, along with some popular ones from abroad, found that the newer varieties also performed better in dry conditions, yielding 1.5 to 2 tonnes more dry matter per hectare annually. They were more persistent, formed fewer stems, and were more rust tolerant. However, two varieties from Italy and Poland performed less well than Belgian varieties. The research emphasizes the importance of grass breeding for dairy farmers and highlights the need for choosing the right variety to ensure sufficient and nutritious grass, especially with the challenges of extreme weather and stricter fertilization standards.

This is shown by research by the Institute for Agricultural, Fisheries and Food Research (ILVO). This institute has conducted a large-scale variety trial with Italian ryegrass in 2018 and 2019. Not only were all grass varieties registered in Belgium grown here, but also some grass varieties popular in Belgium from abroad. All 22 varieties were scored for yield, persistence, rust resistance and digestibility. The results are clear, says researcher Joke Pannecoucque. Breeding 'The newer varieties score better than the older ones in all areas. This is good proof of the success of grass breeding and important news for the dairy farmer. Moreover, the varieties on the foreign list do less well in certain aspects than the varieties on our list. ' The trial showed that new varieties also performed better in the dry conditions in 2018 and 2019. The newest varieties yield 1.5 to 2 tonnes more dry matter per hectare on an annual basis. The varieties that yield above average pounds of dry ...
