Barolympic Ultrafine

Barolympic sets a new standard for fine, dense turf that demands tolerance to close-mowing and high wear. 

In Victoria, Barolympic was the number 1 grass out of 29 varieties assessed by John Neylan. Barolympic was the best variety for germination and seedling vigour, and statistically the best variety for winter growth and density.

In an independent Queensland trial conducted by Matt Roche of Australian Sports Turf Consultants (ASTC), Barolympic was the best performer in early
gemination and density where relative humidity levels were 81.4%. Barolympicwas also rated the best overall performer in terms of quality at the completion of
the 18-week trial. At this point in time mean daily temperature was 17.4°C andthe maximum temperature was 30°C.
Barolympic and a mix of Barolympic/Premier 3 excelled in the whole trial. A Barolympic/Premier 3 mix was the #1 performer in ryegrass coverage percentage
oversown into Wintergreen couch (Cynodon dactylon).

In addition to its outstanding mean scores, Barolympic offers exceptional fineness of leaf and shows very fast recovery and growth rates. This enables quick
germination, establishmentand mid-season repair in areasof high traffic. Barolympic is a perfect all-rounder for all areas of ryegrass usage.
