Livestock producers managing breeding programs will find Estancia’s reproductive benefits particularly valuable during critical seasons. Recent trials conducted at Mississippi State University shows Estancia to be a top producer of dry matter, while maintaining quality throughout the winter, often holding over 14% protein and above 70% digestibility. This nutritional consistency becomes especially important during late gestation and early lactation periods when conventional fescues typically decline in quality, allowing producers to maintain cow condition without supplemental feeding programs.
