Buckshot Annual Ryegrass – High-energy grass with a dense fibrous roots to take up left over nutrients.

Bull Radish – Improves soil quality and brings minerals to the surface for the forage grasses to utilize in the spring; provides rapid establishment in the fall for earlier grazing opportunity.

Forage Production

Seeding rate

Drilled (7.5” rows): 80–120 lbs./acre (can be planted as high as 150 lbs.)
Seeding depth: 1”

Planting window: At least 4 weeks before first killing frost

Fall Fertility requirements: A small amount of nitrogen or manure is recommended. If planted following corn silage, little to no fertility may be required. There is a direct correlation to increased top growth when added nutrients are applied at time of planting; however, it is usually not required.

Spring Fertility requirements: Spring application of 30-50 lbs. per acre of nitrogen should be applied after dormancy.

Cover Crop / Grazing

Seeding Rates

Drilled: 40-50 lbs./acre
Broadcast: 50-60 lbs./acre

Planting window for cover crop and spring grazing: At least 2 weeks before first killing frost.

Planting window for fall grazing: At least 6 weeks before first killing frost.
