2018 forage

 
Oats were no-till drilled in a field on April 13. We will chop and bag the oats as oatlage for cattle feed. After the oats are harvested, we then plan on seeding forage peas into the field. The forage peas will also be chopped and bagged to be fed to cattle later. Forage peas are a quality feed that is high in protein. Following the forage peas, sudangrass or pearl millet with be no-till drilled into the field for cows to graze into the fall.
