Organic Hazlet Winter Rye

UNCERTIFIED
  • Most common and most hardy fall seeded cover crop in the northern climates
  • If used for forage/grazing, increase seeding rate is recommended
  • Competes well with weeds; quality forage/green manure in spring
  • Excellent feed value as late-season forage with protein levels up to 18%
  • Well adapted to all soil types including low fertility, acidic or sandy soils
  • Can plant late into fall (until first snow) but performs best when seeded at least 6 weeks before freeze up
  • Germinates down to 35 degree soil temps
  • Can suppress germination of following crops (esp. small seeded grasses)
  • Allow terminated rye to decompose for 7-10 days prior to seeding following crop
  • Heavy N and water usage in spring; terminate early if drought is forecasted
