| Grew it 1 year to make a killing in cover crop seed. Yielded 25 bu per acre so I didn't make my killing. A year or so later my dairy farmer neighbor didn't get to chop all his so he let a field go for seed. It looked beautiful. The custom combiner came in and didn't go 100 ft. They weren't getting any grain. The heads were barren. Problem is rye flowers earlier than other small grains and it susceptible to damage from a late frost. | |
