Hybrid Brassica
Hybrid Brassica is a fast-growing, cool-season annual brassica that features upright and spreading growth with minimal bulb development. It is ideal for multiple grazing cycles due to its excellent regrowth capability. This versatile crop can extend the grazing season into the fall or be planted alongside warm-season annuals for continued grazing throughout the summer. With proper management first grazing within 40-45 days and subsequent grazings every 25-30 days at a height of no less than 4 inches it has the potential to yield over 5 tons of dry matter per acre, making it an efficient and high-yielding forage option.
