HarvXtra® Alfalfa with Roundup Ready® Alfalfa Technology

By Hay and Forage Grower


Heard about reduced lignin alfalfa? Wondered if it can play a role on your farm? Redesigned to increase digestibility by 12-15 percent, HarvXtra™ alfalfa with Roundup Ready® Technology allows a delay of harvest up to 10 days while still maintaining quality and digestibility when compared to conventional alfalfa at the same stage of maturity. Dr. Mark McCaslin of Forage Genetics International talked about a new genetic trait that potentially will change the way we manage alfalfa.
