[QUOTE="pdfangus, post: 1386253, member: 6543"] research indicates that it will produce more nitrogen than crimson clover....not a vast amount more but more....we had and extension specialist who was a crop farmer as well and he had a field day a few years ago and said the he had produced a real good crop of corn on nothing but the nitrogen from cover crops of rye and vetch.....I can not recall the yield number but it was impressive... when planted with a small grain the vetch will climb the small grain and eventually pull it over....more organic matter than clover... all that said I usually plant mixes that have both vetch and crimson clover....both do well for me broadcast even though the vetch is a bigger seed.
