Endurance Plantain Seed 25Kg
SEAPT25
Product Summary
Endurance Plantain is a fast-establishing, high-performing forage herb designed to deliver strong livestock gains while supporting environmentally responsible farming systems. It responds quickly to moisture and maintains performance under grazing pressure, making it a reliable addition to modern pasture mixes.
Key Benefits
Rapid growth response following rainfall
Performs well under grazing pressure
Supports improved livestock performance
Naturally high in trace elements, especially Selenium
Helps fill pasture gaps and suppress weeds
Environmental Benefits
Endurance Plantain is recognised by regional councils including Canterbury, Horizons, and Bay of Plenty as a practical tool for reducing nitrogen leaching.
In systems where plantain makes up around 30% of the pasture, Overseer nutrient modelling has shown nitrate leaching reductions of approximately 7–20%.
Actual results will vary depending on soil type, climate, and farm management practices.
Use Cases
Improving pasture resilience after dry periods
Filling gaps in existing swards
Competing against and suppressing weed pressure
Supporting nutrient management strategies on regulated farms
Application
Can be broadcast into pasture, including ahead of grazing.
Typical establishment approaches include split applications (e.g. autumn and spring) to improve strike and persistence.
Proven in the Field
A North Taranaki farmer reported excellent establishment following a dry summer, using 2 kg/ha in autumn and 2 kg/ha in spring. The plantain struck well, filled in gaps, and effectively outcompeted weeds under grazing conditions.
