RPR - Regenerating Perennial Ryegrass from Barenbrug USA, Inc.

Barenbrug USA has developed a perennial ryegrass with stolons. This new and exciting product is a breakthrough in turf grass breeding. The product is called RPR, Regenerating Perennial Ryegrass. RPR outcompetes every other perennial ryegrass on wear tolerance. It also shows a very good turf quality.

RPR comes out of the breeding program of Barenbrug USA. Barenbrug breeder Dr. J. Wipff bred it in Virginia. “The RPR germplasm was a jewel at our Virginia breeding location. Under very harsh conditions the RPR plants were aggressive and expanding. While I tried to make it as hard for them as I could with wear and tear with our wear machine and the help of mother nature with hot and cold weather”, says Dr. Wipff.
RPR is very aggressive and is perfectly suited to use on sport fields, golf courses and lawns and landscaping areas. Especially when the turf is exposed to intensive wear.
