Zanandrea Sementi Srl has the exclusive rights for Italy for this product. It’s a medium-late winter barley without awns that produces forage with high palatability and digestibility. Its resistance to winter cold, intensive grazing, and high forage biomass production make it very interesting also for the production of dry hay for dairy and beef cattle.
