[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 19146, member: 9"] Thanks Arnold for your input. Agree that Center for Range Management is slow to respond. I was raised in Denton county in N. Texas and we didn't plant oats in fall due to the worst freezes arriving in late winter would tend to kill the new growth. Thus, the tendency to plant in early spring. Regarding germination, I have shreaded oat straw and put on top of a garden only to have a good crop of oats compete with the vegetables...lol. With broadcast at 2X rate and not cover up except perhaps pull a drag over it, I would guess germination would be about 25% + or so . My main concern would be whether or not the new spring growth of oats would be harmful to cattle or horses and if one would need to limit grazing time?? Also would agree that if the oats grew faster than bermuda it could block sunlight for best bermuda growth. [/QUOTE]
