s.e. Pa | I grow a little, mostly for my own use as cover crop seed. I have gotten 1/3-2/3 as much rye as I do wheat yield. If the price of wheat is good, rye is not worth growing imo. It is easy to sell, but not as easy as taking wheat to the elevator. Must be cleaned, and most people want it bagged. With the cost of cleaning and bagging wheat looks even better. I don't put much N on. I try to use some manure in the fall or spring, and no additional N. If you push the N, it will go down and be a mess.
