Trouble finding Rye and Ryegrass in South?

[Douglas]

Local supplies are having trouble get seed this spring.
Anyone else having problems?

I just bought some from the local coop. The local farm supply store had it also but were a few bucks more than the coop.

I haven't heard of problems getting it but I have heard of some high prices. I was told last week of $20 a bag for wrens rye and $12 for coker oats.

Got another month before we seed any winter grasses here. Lane, how do you like that coker? I was thinking of trying it this year but I may be a bit too far south

Local feed store had it packed dang near to the ceiling a week ago . I bought a ton.

Hook the cockers are fairly good but tend to be get more rust. I am in talks with a local dairy of growing some horizon oats for them to be put up as high moisture hay.

Must be expecting rain or you have a lot of garden hose.....

Well I am only going to plant the bottom pasture, if we get a heavy dew it will run down hill.

Well,I bit. I planted 20 acres of rye and oats. Probably money thrown up a goats a$$. Got it in the ground after the last rain ( the only rain we have had ) . I am sure it will germinate but might die after that.

The drought down south wiped out most of the southern rye crop (straincross rye's) and that has now but a strain on the northern rye supply. Talking grain rye's, not ryegrasses. Annual ryegrass use has been up this year as well, but there is a pretty good supply.
