Oats are an annual cover crop for wet mesic to dry soils. Use for spring or summer seedings. Do not use Oats with fall or dormant seedings; seeds and seedlings do not overwinter. Use 20 lbs per acre (12,800 seeds per lb) if seeding with native seed May - mid-July, or 96 lbs per acre if seeding the cover crop alone in the summer.

You may be able to purchase oats from your local farm seed dealer for a lower price. If so, be sure there is no weed seed contamination listed on the label. Sold in pound quantities only.
