I had asked on Using Your Tractor about planting oats for forage this time of year. Spent most of last Saturday afternoon in my TW35 pulling the Vibrashank getting the field ready. Just before it was time to milk, a highschooler who occasionally works for me came over to plant the field for me. He isn't a Ford fan, but is learning to at least respect them. Used the 7600 since it still had duals on. Don't let the dust fool you - there was plenty of moisture at planting depth. The second picture is the same field, the same day, in a low spot. Couldn't quite get all of it worked. Dont' even want to look at that spot now, as we've had showers three different times (including half an hour after he finished planting) and a 1"+ rain since then. I have another small grain planting question for any of you with experience with fall seeding. I have another 16 acres that got all messed up with the late, wet spring we had here. It's too wet to do anything now, but I'm wondering about winter barley or triticale, to be used for grain next year. When should they be planted, and can alfalfa (or clover or maybe trefoil) be planted along with it, like I do in the spring? (n/w WI)
