Estancia tall fescue is the result of years of laboratory and field research by the University of Arkansas in cooperation with the University of Missouri. Estancia is a medium maturing, high yielding tall fescue with excellent seedling vigor. What is ArkShield? ArkShield is a patented smart endophytic fungus that lives inside Estancia Tall Fescue seed and plants in a mutually beneficial relationship protecting the grass from disease, insects and environmental stresses like heat and drought. ArkShield is natural and desirable in forage grasses and has no known negative effects on livestock. The ArkShield endophyte makes Estancia a more productive and persistent perennial forage grass. Estancia with ArkShield Quality Assurance: Estancia is packaged in a 25 lb. sealed foil bag to reduce air, heat and moisture transfer into and out of the bag that helps to ensure the viability of the seed and the live ArkShield® endophyte. Estancia with ArkShield® has both a guaranteed analysis tag ensuring the seed purity and germination, as well as a sowby date ensuring the viability of the live endophyte.
