How to Grow Better Oats in the Corn Belt

Agronomist T R Stanton explains soil and cultivation needs for oats. Well drained loams suit oats, which require more water for dry matter than other cereals. In wet soils disease risk rises, while moisture-retaining lands yield more.

Oats In The Rotation Describe Desirable Crop Plan

Oats fit into rotations with both tilled and legume crops. They adapt well and follow corn after harvest to ease labor. Common Corn Belt rotation is corn, oats, and grass or clover, sometimes extended to six years. A four year sequence may include two corn crops and one oats crop plus clover and grass. Another plan uses corn oats winter wheat one year then clover and grass.

Oats as a Nurse Crop in Pasture Seeding

Oats as a nurse crop are not as satisfactory as other crops due to dense foliage and heavy moisture draw. Early seeding with short-awned varieties improves stands of clover or grass, and reduced seeding rates help establish space between rows for better light and air. When used for grain, oats should be drilled to ensure even spacing.

Seed Bed Preparation for Oats and Seed Sowing

Oats respond well to firm seed beds with two to three inches of finely pulverized, mellow soil. Disk the land before sowing, with two single dishings or one double disking followed by harrowing. When sowing on corn stubble, drag stalks before disk ing and set disks 3 to 4 inches deep. a second disking covers the seed.

Seed Quality and Germination Testing for Oats

The guide covers home grown high yield seed for oats, stresses selecting a pure variety, proper curing and storage, and seed viability testing. It explains a 5 day germination test aiming 96 to 98 percent, and notes tanning, grading, and cleaning to remove weed seeds as essential for agriculture in the Corn Belt.

Seeding Oats and Seed Bed Considerations

The amount of sod or seed required depends on soil fertility, seeding method, and seed size. Poorly prepared seed beds demand more seed, while excess seed cannot replace proper preparation. Typical losses range from one half to one peck per week, with broadcast sowing needing lighter rates than heavy seed mixes.
