Abstract  `Grasslands Tekapo' cocksfoot (Dactylis glomerata L.) was selected from a European accession. It is a fine-leaved, densely-tillered cultivar, and of the same prostrate habit as `Grasslands Wana' cocksfoot; but appears to show better compatibility with white clover in the sward. Tekapo cocksfoot is early-flowering, warm-season productive, and fairly similar to Wana cocksfoot in nutritional qualities. It is intended for use in severe grazing situations.

Keywords  `Grasslands Tekapo' cocksfoot; Dactylis glomerata L.
