[QUOTE="masteradeen2000, post: 811109, member: 16203"] Has anyone mixed(succesfully or otherwise) annual lespedeza with the Red river crabgrass? Was wondering which one is more competitive. Tried several different combos of legume/grasses this summer including cowpeas/bmr ss, laredo haybeans/pearl millet or bmr ss and cowpeas/laredo/ bmr ss and some of those roundup ready forage beans on their own. All the mixes the legumes looked good in the stand, especially the cowpeas but contributed very little to the baleage when it was said and done. The forage beans(roundup ready) had potential considering low rain and 20 deer a night eating them on the tiny plot I planted of that, but need more to spread out the deer. I am guessing my seeding ratios needed tweaked to let the legume be a bigger %, the cows didn't relish the laredo haybeans as pasture. Cowpeas weren't easy to find locally and all of them the seed cost is kinda high. [/QUOTE]
