Narrative
Semi-dwarf reaching height of 222cm compared to 224cm for Tifleaf 2 at same planting date. Forage yields and in vitro dry matter digestibility similar to Tifleaf 2. Better rust (Puccinia substriata) resistance (P=0.05) than Tifleaf 2. Heifers grazing produced gains equal to those grazing Tifleaf 2. Yield of commercial hybrid seed can usually be doubled by producing hybrid seed on Tift 8593 instead of on inbred Tift 85DA1.
