[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1395081, member: 9096"] Sainfoin is good for low intensity grazing, it is drought tolerant, but it has to get established well first.. And to be clear, "drought tolerant" doesn't mean it produces when there's a drought! Biggest problem I've found with it is I haven't been able to find inoculant for it, especially in Canada. Vetch is a good feed crop.. just don't ever plan on running the haybine through it! I also find it's good to have something to hold it up that it can climb.. Rye is probably the best option I know of, though I'd probably prefer something that is a little stouter and lower if I could find that.. (sunflowers worked when they volunteered on me) [/QUOTE]
