Boma Rhodes Grass is a widely grown pasture and hay grass variety valued for its soft, high-quality herbage and excellent pasture formation. It is especially popular in medium-altitude areas of Kenya, where it performs reliably under both rain-fed and managed grazing systems.
This variety matures within 90–105 days, produces dense bottom tillers, and forms a thick, persistent grass cover that supports sustainable pasture use. Its slow growth habit makes it well suited for lower stocking rates, while its strong drought tolerance ensures dependable forage supply even in dry seasons. Boma Rhodes is ideal for farmers looking for durable pasture grass seeds in Kenya for grazing or hay production.
