Bear..

I know it will grow in north Missouri. I don't know how well it would do down your way. We had just a little bit of it and it survived for the last three or four years I was there. It yielded about the same as orchardgrass.

It's a great grass out here in the West. Maybe you should try just a bit and see how it does. Maybe they've tried it over at the Mt Vernon station..?..

Brome has large expensive seeds. Cattle love it. Regrowth is a little slower than some.

What kills OG in Kentucky?
