Pennlate will produce a very thick and dense stand that is able to persist even under hard, continuous grazing. The dense, prostrate growth of Pennlate also helps it to out-compete many invasive weeds. Pennlate is tolerant of heat, moderate drought, low fertility, and most foliar diseases, including rust. Its aggressive tillers also help utilize soil nutrients. Pennlate is an abundant producer under irrigation and high fertility. With excellent digestibility and good feed value, Pennlate can be combined with high yielding grasses to make an excellent hay/grazing pasture. Pennlate has outperformed many other Orchard Grasses in feed value, palatability and digestibility.

A seeding rate of 15-25 lbs. per acre for 100% pasture is recommended. Seed with other grasses at the rate of 6 to 8 lbs. per acre. Plant with White Clover, Alfalfa, Tetraploid Perennial, and other appropriate grazing grasses. An application of Nitrogen, 25 to 30 units per acre 4 to 6 weeks after sowing promotes tillering without damage to the young stand. Once established, should be grazed or cut leaving a 3 to 4 in. residual.
Plant in early Autumn or in the Spring in a prepared, firm seedbed, seeding with a Brillion-type seeder, or by broadcast and cultipack. A planting depth of 1/8 to 1/4 in. is best. No-till is only recommended when an herbicide is used to sufficiently kill or retard the existing stand. A minimum pH of 6.0 is best.
