Best Time to Sow Fall Rye at Brandon Farm
Brandon Experimental Farm advises early September seedings for fall rye grown for grain to reach 6 to 9 inches before freeze up. Moist seed beds yield better germination. dry soil causes patchy stands and higher winter kill. October plantings suffer frosts, reducing snow insulation. July sowings grow but exhaust plants, increasing winter losses. Early seedings suit fall pasture use.
