Variety:

Fleet

Similar to Regar but slightly more resistant to silver top. High hay and pasture yields with excellent seed yields and seed quality ratings. Good winter hardiness and high digestibility for livestock. (Released 1987, source of ecotype: synthetic of Eurasian sources including Regar)

MacBeth

Similar in forage production to Fleet, Paddock and Regar, but with significantly higher seed yields. (Released 2001, source of ecotype: Montana)

Paddock

Like Fleet, Paddock is more resistant to silver top than Regar. High pasture and hay yields. Good vigor and winter hardiness. Seed quality and digestibility are similar to Fleet but seed yields are slightly lower. (Released 1987, source of ecotype: Krasnador, former USSR)

Regar

Regar seeds germinate and establish quickly. Plants are very winter hardy and produce abundant forage. (Released 1966, source of ecotype: Turkey)
