Supercruise is a fast establishing diploid Italian ryegrass for the New Zealand market. Displaying all the required attributes of a high quality diploid Italian ryegrass, Supercruise has the endurance to go the distance. If you are looking for a cost effective, short term pasture or a reliable option for undersowing into worn out perennial pastures, Supercruise is the grass for you.

Daniel has used Supercruise as a 'forage crop' to provide bulk-quality feed on the main station and run-off block on the Taieri. As a crop it is allowing 12-24 months feed while allowing the opportunity to clean up weed issues for lucerne and permanent pasture. The run-off block is primarily for finishing cattle/silage and the Supercruise on the station is for all stock.
