Endophytes (fungus) are important to a tall fescue plant. The fungus aids the plant in being more tolerant to heat and drought stress, plus adds tolerance to some insects and diseases. However, the natural fungi in grass plants produce toxins that are harmful to livestock. MaxQ endophyte provides all the beneficial effects for the plant without producing harmful toxins. With good management practices tall fescue can produce crude protein levels of 15 to 16%; TDN in the 60 to 62% range. However, environmental conditions and management practices will determine individual results.
