I seeded some new pasture down with oats as a nurse crop. I seeded about 80 lb/a which is too heavy. I decided to have a neighbor make hay out of it as soon as it is ready so it doesn't crowd out the coming clover and grasses.
What is the value of oat hay if it is made at the right time? I assume the right time would be just before grain matures? Or when is the best time to hay it for nutritional value? I would appreciate any advice.
