For those that are near my area (southwest VA) what would be best to plant after my Pearl Millet is done. Where the Millet is planted is in the area where I feed hay in the winter so by January it will be pretty tore up. So Iam wanting something that will give me a lot of growth early. Would you choose oats , rye or wheat ?
 
I'm farther south in GA so my input may or may not be relevant. I usually plant a mixture of cereal rye, oats, and ryegrass. The oats give me late fall grazing, the rye mid to late winter grazing, and the ryegrass early spring grazing. PROVIDED, I have adequate moisture to get it sowed in late September early October.
