Barley and Peas in Regional Crop Rotations Across Regions
The article outlines regional crop rotation patterns featuring barley, corn, and legumes. It notes eastern Oregon and adjacent states favor peas before barley or wheat, with barley often grown without strict rotation. In the South winter barley aligns with wheat, and coastal sandy soils reduce barley success. Specific rotations such as Piermont’s crimson clover and cowpeas form a three year cycle, extendable by a second barley crop or pasture.
