  • HarvXtra Alfalfa gives growers the ability to better manage the yield versus-quality trade-off. It offers more flexibility in cutting schedule to achieve improved forage quality or greater yield potential, when compared to conventional alfalfa at the same stage of maturity.
  • The HarvXtra technology provides unprecedented flexibility by widening cutting windows, which gives growers the option at each cutting to:
    • Maintain their normal harvest schedules for higher-quality forage, or
    • Extend harvest for up to 10 days for increased yield potential, without sacrificing forage quality, compared to conventional alfalfa at the same stage of maturity.
  • HarvXtra Alfalfa has 10-15% higher neutral detergent fiber digestibility (NDFd) than conventional alfalfa harvested at the same stage of maturity.
  • HarvXtra Alfalfa is stacked with the Roundup Ready® Technology for unsurpassed weed control with excellent crop safety.
  • High resistance to Spotted Aphid.
