Novel Endophyte Fescue

Tower Protek

tower

Tower II is a late-maturing, novel endophyte, soft leaf variety. A soft and palatable grass, animals prefer to eat Tower II over ryegrass at trial sites. It is easy to manage and results in excellent animal performance in beef cattle, lambs, and dairy cows. It is easier than older fescues to maintain leafy and high-quality pastures in late spring and summer due to the very late heading date (up to 28 days later) and palatable leaf.

  • Improved digestibility/palatability
  • Late maturity
