Variety Selection should balance both Fall Dormancy, to Optimize high yields, and winter survival data to insure adequate winter survival for long term yields.

Superior alfalfa varieties like Rugged and Rebel have combined both high yield potential and improved winter survival, to optimize farmer profits.

Variety Selection | Optimal Yield & Winter Survival | WSI & FD Scale

-Estimate winter hardiness from winter survival ratings determined by standardized field tests. Winter Survival Index (WSI) scores (range from 1 (most winter hardy) to 6 (least winter hardy)

-Alfalfa varieties are also rated for fall dormancy, a measure of fall re-growth. Fall dormancy (FD) ratings range from 1 (minimum fall regrowth) to 10 (maximum fall regrowth).
