The 4010 Pea & Barley Mix is an excellent choice for high-quality forage production. This mix, consisting of 60% barley and 40% 4010 peas, provides a balanced nutrient profile and can be harvested at the boot stage for optimal feed value. Harvesting at this stage can also enhance regrowth potential, making it a sustainable option for repeated use.
Benefits
- High-Quality Forage: Harvesting at the boot stage offers the best feed value. Protein content ranges from 15-19%, ensuring nutritious forage for livestock.
- Balanced Nutrient Utilization: This mix can utilize 60 lbs of nitrogen (N), 30 lbs of phosphorus (P), and 60 lbs of potassium (K), promoting healthy growth and development.
- Improved Tonnage: While waiting until the grain heads out will improve tonnage, it may decrease food value and regrowth potential.
- Versatile Use: Suitable for early spring planting, this mix can be adjusted for lighter seeding rates if underseeding with alfalfa or other legumes.
Planting Instructions
- Seeding Rate: Seed at 120-150 lbs/acre. Use a lighter rate if underseeding with legumes like alfalfa.
- Seeding Depth: Drill approximately 3/4 inch deep for optimal germination.
- Timing: Seed as soon as fields are ready to be worked in early spring.
- Harvest: Plan on harvesting 50-60 days after planting. For best quality, harvest when the small grain is at the boot stage. Waiting until the milk stage will increase tonnage but decrease quality.
Usage
- Forage Quality: Provides excellent quality forage when harvested at the boot stage, making it highly suitable for silage.
The 4010 Pea & Barley Mix is a reliable and productive option for farmers seeking high-quality forage with excellent nutritional value. Its balanced composition and nutrient utilization make it an ideal choice for sustainable farming practices.
