[QUOTE="NorCalFarms, post: 215908, member: 2465"] I just leased a piece of ground (around 20 acres) that I might be able to purchase later, but I don't want to establish it into grass until I know. Since I am short on pasture this summer anyway, I was thinking of planting it into some annual crop that I can graze this summer/fall. Don't really know much about grazing crops other than grass, I know some people graze wheat or triticale in this area. Looking for something I can just drill (it is bare ground currently) and let it grow until this summer when it gets hot and the grass doesn't grow as fast, then graze it to give my pastures a rest. Anybody know if wheat will work? How soon can you graze, does it have enough protien? It is irrigated and I would like to be off of it by September so I can establish grass if the deal goes through. Anything better than wheat that has cheap seed? Any ideas appreciated. [/QUOTE]
