Description

FSG 402TF Tall Fescue is an endophyte free, medium maturing tall fescue variety which eliminates concerns about fescue foot, bovine fat necrosis and fescue toxicosis in cattle.

Two characteristics make FSG 402TF tall fescue stand apart from other tall fescues; summer regrowth and disease resistance. Summer regrowth exceeds that of KY-31, Fawn and Max Q when averaged over all trial locations. This indicates better forage distribution throughout the growing season, reducing the summer slump that cool season grasses normally experience. After reviewing Stem Rust and Crown Rust data from FFR trials, FSG 402TF had significantly higher resistance to both diseases when compared to other commercial and experimental varieties. With excellent summer regrowth, superior disease resistance, high forage yield potential and a wide area of adaptation, FSG 402TF will easily outperform other currently available tall fescue varieties.
