Primefest is a unique hybrid combining Italian Ryegrass and Meadow Fescue, giving it strong winter activity and annual yield from the Italian side, and enhanced persistence from Meadow Fescue (often lasting 2–3 years or more). Meadow Fescue’s deeper root system and high feed quality boost Primefest’s resilience and overall forage value. It’s a versatile option for finishing systems, either sown pure or in mixes with clovers and herbs to create a high-performing 2–3 year pasture.
