Profit plus
Hogan establishes rapidly and out grows 30+ year old Tama by over 800kg DM/ha. If you value this cool season growth at $0.50/kg DM, Hogan’s advantage is $400/ha extra profit, i.e. an 8 fold return on the extra $50/ha it costs to sow Hogan over Tama.
Fast establishment
Hogan is a tetraploid bred for rapid establishment (+21% faster than Tama) to provide fast feed in autumn, a critical advantage particularly following dry summers.
Reliable
Hogan has been proven to perform, year in, year out, across all types of farm systems, soils and seasons, pumping out energy-rich feed from autumn through spring.
Winter crop
It is the ideal autumn sown 6-8 month winter crop, or spring sow for 12 months. If a longer term crop is required, Tabu+ or hybrid ryegrasses Shogun or Forge are better options.
Sowing Hogan
Hogan annual ryegrass is protected under the NZ Plant Variety Rights Act 1987.
