Narrative
Small plot field evaluations of this release were conducted at multiple sites, and averaged over these locations, the forage dry matter yield was 8.8 percent greater than that of Woodward sand bluestem. The seasonal average crude protein and in vitro digestible dry matter was not significantly different from Woodward in this field trial.The seed yield was 59 percent greater than that of Woodward. In replicated grazing trials the average daily gain to stocker cattle was not significantly different from that of Woodward sand bluestem.
