[QUOTE="Rydero, post: 1673803, member: 38101"] It's getting to be seed buying time. I've got a couple hundred acres I zero tilled into sod either grain or cover crop mixes last year. About half I've got the option to graze(and did last year). I made greenfeed and combined the rest. I need at least a 3 species mix to get some government $$ for seed as "cover crops". I had some haymaker oats I was impressed with last year. I'd like the option to cut, dry and bale. I was thinking haymaker oats, hairy vetch and sorghum (had a ton of grasshoppers last year and they didn't touch the sorghum). I'm not sure if as a general rule it's a good plan to seed oats with sorghum because if I get a good catch of oats it should get out way ahead of it - but grasshopper insurance is a nice feature. Maybe someone has a way better idea.. [/QUOTE]
