Fall Rye
Secale cereale, introduced
- If planted in early August, fall rye can be available as a fall forage and as a feed source again in spring
- Very cold tolerant
- Extensive fibrous root system
- Introduced to North America but widely adapted to all areas of crop production
- Favours lighter, low-pH soils
- Cover crops can be added to custom blends to help reduce soil erosion by wind and water and to help suppress weed populations while the native species are establishing
- Cover crops can also aid in extending the grazing period
- Can be added to custom seed blends at 5-10% of total blend
