Good groundcover
The outstanding advantage of HOLESOME is the high groundcover compared to other diploid hybrids.
Yield
The groundcover is reflected in a better persistency compared to the standard and a higher yield of drymatter in the third year.
Ear emergence
Heading takes place well later than for the majority of hybrids making it very suitable for grazing and with a huge spring window with optimal quality.
