[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 1071787, member: 4362"] Apparently disease will get it along about the third year. I would plant it with oats and it was great but the third year I had a shaky stand of it. I blamed it on the new and improved variety I used but it was probably disease and I was too dumb to identify it. One thing I did learn about it is its very drought tolerant and much more heat tolerant than one might expect. It sure saved me during a bad drought and when I didn't have anything else to graze I had rape till the first week of July. Here is a mix of oats and rape. I drilled the oats and had the rape just fall from the small seed box directly on the ground and the chains tossed dirt on them. This was one of the best winter plantings I think I ever grew.
