Ampac Seed Company and its network of distributors announce the availability of a new tender-leafed, endophyte free, forage tall fescue. 

BRONSON Tall Fescue is showing impressive results in many forage trials throughout the country. 

As part of Ampac’s serious commitment to testing, this last summer we conducted multiple field studies on BRONSON, including an IVTD analysis (IVTD measures how much of a forage an animal will digest.) 

The results of the test, shown in the chart below, boast of Bronson having a 77% digestion percentage.

These types of measurements, plus continuous testing throughout the country will help both farmers and suppliers make better decisions. 

BRONSON is also available in Ampac Seed’s Pasture Perfect Show Horse and Multipurpose Mixtures.
