Reward is a tetraploid perennial ryegrass with Endo5 endophyte bred with a low aftermath heading for the Australian farmer. It is very late maturing which means high quality feed for longer, especially at times when feed is needed most.

Reward is suited to a broad range of farming systems including sheep, beef and dairy, making it a great all round option. Avoid hard set stocking during dry periods.

Sowing rate (sole): 20-30kg/ha
Sowing rate (mixed): 20-25kg/ha

Endo5 contains Ergovaline and Peramine for insect protection. It is recommended to avoid prolonged set-stocking or grazing fresh regrowth of such pastures during summer and autumn.
