Ovation 2 is a second generation StandFast® alfalfa with the Fast Growth trait that brings more yield potential and a stronger disease package that can maximize total seasonal forage yield for aggressive alfalfa managers. The fast growth of Ovation 2 contributes to moisture conservation and better weed control by closing the canopy more quickly, which results in bigger second, third and fourth crops.  Exceptional regrowth is up to 30% faster which offers large acreage alfalfa growers and contract harvesters a faster start to the harvest season and the ability to maximize cuttings per year.  With bred-in tolerance to extra wheel traffic, Ovation 2 handles more frequent harvesting operations resulting in more milk, beef or tons per acre.

Key Strengths:

• Helps to maximize forage yield and quality potential
• Extra 6” growth in the first 21 days following harvest
• Faster recovery and 30% faster regrowth after each cutting results in crop ready for harvest 3-5 days earlier 
• Standability protects yield and quality
• CP, NDFD, ADF, RFQ equal to best conventional alfalfas
