Prairie Brome Grass Seed

Matua Prairie Brome Grass Seed (Bromus wildenowii Kunth) is a highly adaptable, cool-season forage grass developed for superior grazing performance, hay production, and nutrient management applications. As part of the broader bromegrass family, Matua offers exceptional forage quality, extended seasonal growth, and strong persistence under proper fertility and soil management programs. This premium prairie bromegrass variety is widely recognized for its performance under irrigation systems in arid regions of the Southern United States while also excelling in northern climates as a companion species in high-quality hay fields.

Matua Prairie Brome is especially valued for its ability to thrive in high-fertility environments and efficiently utilize elevated nitrogen levels and effluent wastewater applications. Its aggressive growth habit and extended growing season make it an outstanding choice for livestock producers seeking dependable forage production throughout a longer grazing window.

Certified Matua seed is professionally treated to help prevent head smut disease and carefully processed to ensure free-flowing seed for improved planting efficiency and consistent seed distribution. The distinct pink-colored seed coating provides easy visual identification of certified seed quality.
