“We’re very excited about this year’s alfalfa and AlfaGrass lineup,” shared Justin Fruechte, Ag Product Expert for the brand. “It’s an interesting time in the alfalfa market. Many brands are backing away from, or even completely eliminating, their alfalfa offering. Renovo is making sure we have excellent options. We have been a steady alfalfa supplier for many years, and we’ll continue offering it for decades to come,” he continued.
Renovo Seed invests many years into alfalfa trials, ensuring the varieties in their lineup can be trusted for quality forage and strong persistence.
“I’ve seen a lot of alfalfa in my days, but I’ve rarely seen a seed company invest this much into their alfalfa vetting process. We take the time to make sure the Renovo Seed alfalfa varieties are top tier, no matter what your conditions are. Whether you’re in the western plains or the eastern corn belt, we have an alfalfa or AlfaGrass variety to fit your operation,” shares Matt Metzger, Sales Account Manager for Renovo Seed.
The Renovo Seed alfalfa lineup offers a variety of products, including everything from a Fall Dormancy 3 option for areas with harsh winters, to a non-dormant alfalfa suitable for southern climates. With forage quality top of mind, Renovo Seed alfalfa and AlfaGrass mixes take yield and persistence to the next level.
