Annual ryegrass is a great fit for any landscape due to its short season nature. In temperate climates like New Zealand, tetraploid annual ryegrass provides valuable bursts of feed between cropping cycles. Agricom's brand new annual variety Revel stands out with its consistent ability to recover from a range of environmental conditions. It’s the ideal choice to follow summer crops like maize or chicory, delivering punches of winter feed to your farm system before spring rolls around again.

In this episode of The Al & Juddy Show, Dr. Alan Stewart reflects on his extensive career in plant breeding and how New Zealand’s agricultural landscape has evolved over the decades.

He walks through his early education, the influence of endophytes on pasture management, the challenges and innovations of the 1990s, and the emergence of new forage species such as plantain.

Dr. Stewart also discusses the major shifts driven by industry mergers and global expansion in the 2000s, along with the growing importance of environmental considerations in modern farming.
