Winter Cover Crop


We clear-cut a 1/2 acre forrest last winter and ran pigs through it all summer. In November I planted a cover crop which will be used as early summer sheep feed. It consists of peas, white and red clovers, alfalfa, daikon radish, turnip, , rye, oats, wheat, buckwheat sunflower, millet, chicory, and dandilion. I just spread the seeds by hand on the ground before the leaves fell. The cold weather seeds are already growing a bit. I expected the warm weather seeds to sprout around May. This area is being turned into a silvopasture for sheep. I’m pretty exited!
