About

Being frost tolerant it is a viable option for sowing later in the season. Rondo is a high-yielding variety that provides excellent energy from its leafy tops and swollen roots. It is well-suited for grazing in late autumn and winter, making it valuable during periods of forage shortage. Sheep generally find Rondo turnips palatable, which helps with intake and performance.
