Standfast Alfalfas

Standfast Alfalfas

The quest for genetic diversification and superior yield has led breeders to a unique family of tall, fast-growing alfalfas with improved standability. These new alfalfas with StandFast traits offer high yield, persistence, and complete pest package, improved standability, and a faster recovery after harvest. StandFast alfalfas are the product of conventional breeding and are not GMO's. Growers who plant an alfalfa with StandFast traits will have additional opportunity for maximum net yield from every acre each season.
