In times when it counts, farmers trust Crusader to help them.

​Crusader is a simple, cost effective and valuable solution to maintaining and improving feed quality. As a certified variety, it ensures true to type characteristics and meets strict standards. You are guaranteed genetic stability and consistency of performance year after year. Crusader has fast establishment and persistence making it a better option for less than ideal conditions. With a maturity date later than other italian ryegrasses, it provides leafy growth longer and remains vegetative its first season. Crusader is a diploid and has more seeds per pound than a tetraploid ryegrass, meaning its seeding rate is half that to achieve the same plant population. It is a lower cost per acre alternative to cereals and tetraploid annual ryegrasses.
