The field seeded to oat this spring had a 6 way cover crop summer/ fall of 2013. Some of the cover crop went to long til frost and produced viable seed which I did not catch till oats were up and growing. If we would have had a normal June weather I could have harvested without a preharvest spray; I binned every bushel I harvested and wanted oats as clean possible. I had a custom sprayer spray it. I won't post the application rate here but it was "substantial". The oats were a dream to harvest;perfectly clean in the field and almost 0% FM in the sample. I won't hesitate to do it again;if it works this good why not?? We used some of these oats for late summer/ fall seeded pasture. They didn't seem to have any germ issues and grew great.
