Xanthomonas tolerant
Xanthomonas attacks can seriously damage the crop and reduce yields and persistency. With almost 90% tolerant plants in artificial lab tests, Cordelia is one of the most tolerant varieties on the market.
Quality parameters at top levelWith limited stem regrowth, few stems in the sowing year, good resistance to rust combined with a good lodging resistance, Cordelia gathers the factors to preserve excellent forage quality.
Yield distributionCordelia shows increased yield in summer and autumn appreciable also for forage mixtures for grazing.
