Well adapted for dryland pastures in the Canadian prairie region, especially for late fall and winter grazing. Deep root system penetrates soil at least 3.5m and allows this grass to use of water at grater depths than most grasses. Tolerates salinity nearly as well as tall wheatgrass (Agropyron elongatum). Developed by Lawrence, T., Agriculture, Canada. Pedigree: 22-clone synthetic. Source material from two Russian introductions; one from the Steppe of Kustanay and the other from Voronezh. Donated 1978 from Agriculture Canada, Saskatchewan, Canada
