Grasslands Tahora has better drought tolerance than many other clover cultivars and has a finely branched fibrous root system. While initially bred for moist hill country, Grasslands Tahora has adapted to a wide range of conditions where its excellent hard wearing characteristics have made it a valuable addition to pasture mixes.
Sowing and Establishment
Grasslands Tahora can be established at 3-4 kg/ha, following normal pasture establishment procedures. Because of its characteristics, Grasslands Tahora is ideal for oversowing. The use of SUPERSTRIKE® seed treatment is recommended and this will improve initial establishment.
Grazing Management
Management of the pasture will depend mainly on the other species included in the mix with Grasslands Tahora. This clover has the ability to persist under many situations, and is ideally suited to set stocking management.
