Bosque Soil Conservation District farmers who lose oats to a freeze can salvage by sowing Madrid clover or hubam clover in existing oats. The ASCS office provides cost sharing for the clover seed and fertilizer under the crop, with grazing allowed under hubam. Harvesting flexibility remains for oats.
