| Best used for | Grazing, Hay, Silage |
- Delivers high feed quantity and quality, supporting better live-weight gains, milk production, and productive grazing.
- Extended season feed: Because of the late heading and persistence, feed quality remains high later in the season when some grasses decline.
- Robust performance under intensive grazing systems: The high tiller density and tetraploid nature make it suitable for high-performance dairy, beef, or mixed systems.
Base Perennial Ryegrass is a late-heading tetraploid ryegrass bred to deliver exceptional feed quality, strong seasonal growth, and excellent animal performance. It’s known for its dense, leafy growth habit and outstanding palatability, making it one of the most preferred pasture options for high-performance dairy, beef, and sheep systems.

- High-yielding tetraploid: Larger leaves with higher sugar content for improved palatability and animal intake.
- Excellent feed quality: Consistently high metabolisable energy and digestibility.
- Late-heading growth: Keeps pastures leafy and high-quality well past spring.
- Strong cool-season growth: Provides valuable feed during autumn and winter.
Cantina is a late-heading tetraploid perennial ryegrass bred by Valley Seeds for exceptional feed quality, strong persistence, and high dry matter production. It provides consistent performance through winter, spring, and summer, making it an ideal base for high-performing pasture systems.
As a tetraploid, Cantina produces lush, leafy growth with excellent palatability and digestibility, supporting animal performance in both dairy and livestock systems. Its late heading extends feed quality well into late spring and early summer, while strong disease resistance ensures durability under intensive grazing.
Note: Cantina is only available through Wesco as part of a custom seed mix. It cannot be purchased as a standalone product

- Mix Flexibility: Combines exceptionally well with dense diploids, cocksfoot, and clovers for balanced, high-quality pastures
Foxtrot is a tetraploid perennial ryegrass selected for high forage yield, digestibility, and persistence under grazing. It offers improved palatability and higher metabolisable energy compared to many diploid ryegrasses, making it suitable for high-performance finishing or dairy systems

- Improves feed quality and animal intake, which can support higher liveweight gains or milk production.
- Good option for high-output farms where feed quality, not just quantity, is critical.
- Helps maximise pasture utilisation due to improved palatability and regrowth.
- Offers an alternative to diploid ryegrasses especially when performance is the goal rather than low-input persistence.
- Works well when mixed with clovers and herbs to build a high-quality sward.
FEED MACHINE
This high-quality perennial pasture mix combines the vigorous Cantina tetraploid ryegrass with the dense, persistent Saxon perennial ryegrass, supported by a balanced blend of Hardy and Pinnacle white clovers.
Cantina contributes outstanding feed quality and dry matter yield through its late heading and leafy growth, while Saxon adds density, structure, and early spring feed when it’s most needed. The two clovers complement the mix with nitrogen fixation, palatability, and high nutritional value — making this blend ideal for long-term, high-performance pastures across a range of New Zealand conditions.
This Mix contains: Cantina Perennial Ryegrass 44% / Saxon Perennial Ryegrass 44% / Hardy White Clover 6% / Pinnacle White Clover 6%
