When Should You Seed Fall Crops?

Timing is pretty important when seeding a fall crop and Hybrid Rye does not like to be too late, although you can increase rates as you get later in season to compensate. If you are grazing you can seed earlier as you will be resetting the plant.
Below are ideal seeding dates but some exceptions do occur:

• Hybrid Rye
  • Central or North prairies = Aug 20 - Sept 15
  • Southern prairies = Aug 25 - Sept 20
• Triticale, Traditional Rye, Winter Wheat
  • Central or North prairies = Aug 20 - Sept 20
  • Southern prairies = Aug 25 - Sept 30
