Introducing Agricom’s smartest grass yet. Align AR37. Our new, extremely late heading, tetraploid perennial ryegrass revolutionising the tetraploid game.

This impressive edition to our ryegrass portfolio introduces a rare style of tetraploid genetics characterised by dense, highly tillered, leafy plants—resulting in resilient, productive pastures all year round. Bred to meet the unique challenges of New Zealand’s diverse agricultural landscape, farmers can expect an adaptable grass, that will excel in any sheep, beef or dairy system. Coupled with AR37 endophyte, you can expect increased persistence, even in some of New Zealand’s more challenging growing conditions.

Align is a powerhouse, renowned by the Agricom agronomy team for its exceptional productivity across challenging summer, autumn and winter seasons. Aligns ability to remain in a vegetative state throughout summer—showcasing low aftermath seedhead and exceptional rust tolerance puts it in a league of its own and sets it apart as a vital asset for any kiwi farmer seeking resilient high-performance pasture. This summer performance and pasture quality allows dairy farmers to maintain peak lactation as long as possible, while these same traits provide sheep and beef farmers with high quality pasture for newly weaned lambs to perform at their best. Throughout winter, Align’s dense nature provides winter resilience not normally associated with tetraploid pastures.

“Align is one of the healthiest and most productive ryegrasses I’ve experienced and it comes at a great time for producers trying to maintain productive efficient farm systems” said Allister Moorhead, Agricom’s Product Development Manager.

Agricom’s extensive trial network has seen Align currently enter 36 internal trial locations across the country from Northland to Southland, of which 22 are yielded. This commitment ensures that you can have confidence that Align AR37 is a consistent, reliable, top performer across a variety of regions and farm systems. If you are looking for a grass backed by research, data and innovation look no further than Align AR37.
