Graser Western Rye Grass: Canada’s First Western Rye Variety
Western Rye Grass, first selected by Kenneth Mac Ivor in Manitoba, later proven self fertilized by Dr. Malte, produced notable seed yields at Ottawa and Scott Station. The No 5 strain, Graser, favored for high aftermath and hay yield, became the first named Western Rye Grass variety in Canada. Seed from 1821 sowing produced 473 lb/acre in 1922 and 650 lb/acre in 1923, now sold in small quantities to farmers.
