Forage Oats
Cool Season Grass
Mycorrhizal Dependent: Yes
Water Use: Medium
Comments: Great nutrient scavenger due to dense fibrous root system. One of the most mycorrhizal-dependent cereals.
Hairy Vetch
Cool Season Legume
Mycorrhizal Dependent: Yes
Water Use: Medium
Comments: Highest nitrogen fixation capabilities of legume species. Sunlight Opportunist. High protein feed source. Regrowth
Italian Rye Grass
Cool Season Grass
Mycorrhizal Dependent: Yes
Water Use: Medium
Comments: Highly digestible with vigorous regrowth. Will not over-winter, unlike annual ryegrass. Fibrous root system is great for compaction.
Forage Peas
Cool Season Legume
Mycorrhizal Dependent: Yes
Water Use: Medium
Comments: Forage pea varieties focus on smaller seed & increased biomass rather than grain yield. Rapid spring growth.
Spring Triticale
Cool Season Grass
Mycorrhizal Dependent: Yes
Water Use: Medium
Comments: Does well in a wide range of soil conditions including lighter soils or areas with moderate levels of salinity.
Purple Top Turnips
Cool Season Broadleaf (Brassica)
Mycorrhizal Dependent: No
Water Use: High
Comments: Highly nutritious brassica (digestibility & protein). Tuber scavenges nitrogen and other nutrients for slow release decomposition the following year.
Flax
Cool Season Broadleaf (Linum)
Mycorrhizal Dependent: Yes
Water Use: Medium
Comments: The highest mycorrhizal fungi-dependent plant. Having a small percentage in the blend helps promote the AMF network.
Soft White Wheat
Cool Season Grass
Mycorrhizal Dependent: Yes
Water Use: Low
Comments: We swapped Forage Barley out for Soft White Wheat for 2025 for the increased palatability. (Awns from the barley)
Daikon Radish
Plant Type: Cool Season Brassica
Mycorrhizal Dependent: No
Water Use: High
Why In The Blend? Highly nutritious brassica (digestibility & protein) with rapid cool-season growth characteristics. Taproot for soil compaction and nutrient scavenging.
