All ratings are general. Different pathotypes, races, and biotypes of diseases and insects can cause ratings to change.
All ratings are based on local field screenings and university screenings
HR= High Resistance, HT= Highly Tolerant, T= Tolerant, MT= Moderately Tolerant, S= Susceptible
1= Poor, 10= Excellent

Management Notes:
J.S.TWO BMR is the top choice for the dairy or beef producer. This hybrid gives you
excellent tonnage while producing feed that is significantly higher in digestibility than
conventional hybrids. Higher digestibility can improve milk production and increased weight
gain. Leaves and stems are very palatable and remain tender through all cuttings. Good
management practices are critical for best results. Standability can be compromised if
harvest is not timely. Horses should not graze on this hybrid.
