[QUOTE="mitch2, post: 593678, member: 6621"] When we seed in new alfalfa fields, our cover crop is oats. First cutting on that new field is usually before second cutting of established fields. We cut the oats at the point of heading out. That is some of the sweetest smelling forage on earth. The cows will eat oat hay before anything else if they have their choice. GREAT stuff. Bale it with no rain on it. If oats get rained on it really diminishes your quantity immensly... the stem on the oats is a finer hollow stem and rain will really do a number on it. Michele [/QUOTE]
