[QUOTE="1982vett, post: 782546, member: 7795"] I skimp on the oats......75-80 lbs. Most recomendations are 100 lbs/acre or more. Sometimes I'll mix in 10 lbs of ryegrass/acre. Since my main puropse is for grazing and not hay or seed production, I justify this approach because I also use less fertilizer and of course a less dense stand should need less rain. Also a less dense stand of oats gives the clover and ryegrass a fighting chance. Grazing in the spring is extended by about 6 weeks with the ryegrass. This years cost ran about $83/acre to plant.
