Excellent later planting option
Spring silage blend offers an excellent later planting option for good silage production in southern areas. It is usually sown from June to September in higher rainfall areas with a (typically) longer spring season. High yield of good quality feed may be produced from a modest area over a relatively short period. Express oats provide yield, energy and reliable bulk. Field peas add protein and improve digestibility and overall animal performance. Silage inoculation is usually advisable at harvest time. Harvest when the pea is at flat pod or the oats at milky-dough stage, whichever is first.
