We have told you many times, "Plant winter wheat in the FALL"!Sept/Oct/Nov Not in the spring.As long as the wheat sprouts in the fall it will grow and mature.I planted a field(22 acres) of wheat in Nov when I was your age.It snowed on em,snow melted,2 weeks later the ground froze.Wheat survived and I made some money that I used to buy my first tractor (JD 730 diesel). Water standing over seedlings will drown them.Oats as a 'cover crop' for hay is a common practice.I do that when I plant alfalfa/grass. Oats grow fast.Seed is cheap.I buy cleaned feed oats from the elevator/feed store.Oats will give the most 'bang' for the buck.You have all the equipment to harvest. Mower behind a SC,a rake, a baler and two strong arms to stack with.Let some mature,thrash it and grind for flour.Oat flour makes great cookies!Oatmeal..... . Go for it!
