RGT OASIS

A persistent, cool season active plantain
Strengths

Bred for persistence and uniformity

Broad, upright leaf for easy grazing

Lifts animal performance

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

RGT Oasis is a plantain developed to thrive in New Zealand conditions, standing out for its uniformity, resilience, and consistent performance. It is a mid-flowering variety, around two weeks later than Tonic, which means it remains in a leafy, vegetative state for longer before running to seed and continues delivering quality feed deeper into the season.

Its broad, upright leaf makes for easy grazing and high utilisation, and because it stays cool-season active it feeds stock when many pasture species slow down. High in quality and minerals, plantain is a valuable addition to perennial pastures, lifting both pasture production and animal performance.
