Product Performance

• The HarvXtra^® Alfalfa trait maximizes quality by reducing lignin content.
• Superior fall dormancy with resistance to multiple pests.
• HarvXtra^® Alfalfa also includes Roundup Ready^® technology for unsurpassed weed control with excellent crop safety.

Performance & Quality

• HarvXtra^® Alfalfa provides, on average, 14 - 18% higher relative forage quality (RFQ) and Neutral Detergent Fiber Digestibility (NDFD) across cuttings than conventional varieties harvested at the same stage of maturity.
• Fewer cuttings have the potential for more yield over time, less stress and lower harvest costs. The HarvXtra^® Alfalfa trait lets growers delay harvest for 7 to 10 days to increase tonnage without sacrificing yield quality.
• Producers can achieve at least 20% higher yield potential by delaying harvest at 35-day cutting intervals.
