2. Perennial grain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perennial_grain

   The development of perennial grains could improve the sustainability of agriculture. [8] [9] [1] [5] In contrast to annual systems, perennial systems involve plants with deep, long lived roots. A perennial system is not dependent on tilling and could reduce the dependence on chemical applications, build soil health, and sequester carbon. [1] [8]

3. Lolium perenne - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolium_perenne

   Lolium perenne, common name perennial ryegrass, [1] English ryegrass, winter ryegrass, or ray grass, is a grass from the family Poaceae. It is native to Europe, Asia and northern Africa, but is widely cultivated and naturalised around the world.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolium_arundinaceum

   Tall fescue is a long-lived tuft-forming perennial (called a bunchgrass in the US), with erect to spreading hollow flowering stems up to about 165 cm (5'6") tall (exceptionally up to 200 cm) which are hairless (glabrous), including the leaf sheaths, but with a short (1.5 mm) ligule and slightly hairy (ciliate) pointed auricles that can wrap slightly around the stem.

5. Thinopyrum intermedium - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thinopyrum_intermedium

   Average seed yields are about 330 pounds per acre (370 kg/ha), but on-farm yields of up to 880 pounds per acre (990 kg/ha) have been achieved. Seed is generally produced in rows spaced 30 to 36 inches (76 to 91 cm) apart. The wide row spacing (relative to grain crops like wheat) allows for sustained seed yields for five to ten years.

6. Perennial crop - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perennial_crop

   Erosion control: Because plant materials (stems, crowns, etc.) can remain in place year-round, topsoil erosion due to wind and rainfall/irrigation is reduced [11]; Water-use efficiency: Because these crops tend to be deeper and more fibrously-rooted than their annual counterparts, they are able to hold onto soil moisture more efficiently, [12] while filtering pollutants (e.g. excess nitrogen ...

7. Lolium rigidum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolium_rigidum

   Common names by which it is known include annual ryegrass, a name also given to Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum), rigid ryegrass, stiff darnel, Swiss ryegrass and Wimmera ryegrass. [1] It is a native of southern Europe, northern Africa, the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent and is grown as a forage crop, particularly in Australia ...
