southwest minnesota | i know its most common to establish winter rye as a cover crop in the fall, but what are the limitations in the spring or late spring (june). If its planted in June, will it still mature to be harvested as grain? or will it strictly need to be chopped as wet feed. This is not a PP situation. We have planted winter rye the last couple years after corn silage, let the cows graze later in the fall, then chopped it in the spring for ryelage. With the late spring it has crossed my mind to harvest the rye as grain and keep enough to plant a cover crop this fall and sell the rest. We use straw in our ration as roughage so we'd just bale the straw and feed it. Just looking for any info on planting rye this late | |
