Grass Fed Beef from DLF Performance
A Flexible Cut & Graze Grass Mixture Designed For Beef Systems
With feed and fertiliser accounting for a significant share of costs on beef farms high quality grass and silage carry a premium. Performance is a dual purpose grass mixture from DLF specifically designed to increase grass growth, quality and utilisation in Irish beef systems.
Increase Dry Matter Yield
DLF Performance includes the latest grass varieties proven to increase grass yields on Irish farms through our Partner Farm Program. The varieties in this mixture have been selected to boost grass growth across the growing season – especially in spring and autumn – when a strong supply of grazed grass can seriously reduce costs on farm.
Growing more grass on farm can provide a number of production benefits like increasing stocking rates, producing more quality homegrown feed and extending the grazing season in the shoulders of the year.
Better Feed Quality & Grass Utilisation
Growing more grass is only part of the equation. The grass grown must be of the highest quality and easily utilised by the animal to really drive performance and profitability. With 60% of DLF Performance made up of high utilisation Tetraploid varieties grass intake, palatability and grazeout are guaranteed.
The cumulative benefits of improved grass yield, quality and utilisation can have a huge impact on farm profitability. By producing more high-quality forage and reducing purchased feed requirements, beef farmers can lower production costs while maintaining or even increasing output.
DLF Performance is a high quality grass mixture designed to improve production on Irish beef farms. Whether through increased grass quality and grazing in the field or more quality silage in the yard, DLF Performance is designed to deliver.
High utilistation mixtures like Performance make life easier for man and beast reducing grass wastage, better grazeouts and faster regrowth of quality grass
