Summer planted oats... these can’t be the ones Grandpa grew! Stan Smith OSU Extension-Fairfield County Tri-County Cattlemen’s Meeting July 10, 2007

1 st... forget everything you thought you knew about oats!!!

Repeat after me...

These are NOT a grain crop...

What you thought you knew... isn’t!

Could oats be our most productive FORAGE?

Late planted oats = forage If they can’t make seed, they remain vegetative Plant after the equinox, up til early September Plant after the equinox, up til early September Plant 64 to 120 pounds Plant 64 to 120 pounds Plant the cheapest oats you can find Plant the cheapest oats you can find No-til, lightly til, broadcast No-til, lightly til, broadcast Mix in turnips, ryegrass, cereal rye? Mix in turnips, ryegrass, cereal rye? Fertilize? Fertilize? Multiple grazings and/or harvests? Multiple grazings and/or harvests?

Let’s look at the costs 100 pounds of = $ pounds of = $15 Planting Planting No-til, $15 / acre No-til, $15 / acre Aerial seeding, $10 - $12 Aerial seeding, $10 - $12 Fertilizer, ~ units of 50 cents Fertilizer, ~ units of 50 cents P & K removal = 14 lbs P, 50 lbs K P & K removal = 14 lbs P, 50 lbs K Total costs = < $45/acre + $15/T (P&K) Total costs = < $45/acre + $15/T (P&K) Yield = 0.5 to 7 ton/ac of HIGH QUALITY feed! Yield = 0.5 to 7 ton/ac of HIGH QUALITY feed!
