Pea Vine Hay Curing Tips From The Farmer's Columns

In farming guidance the best time to cut pea vines for hay is full bloom when some pods are present. Early cuts shed leaves more. later cuts yield woody stems but still feedable. Use horse mower or strong scythe, cut morning after dew, rake into five foot high cocks by noon, open and spread next morning, then re-cock in the afternoon. If dry, dry in three to four days. if wet, stack poles rise above ground and elevate the stack. Maintain air flow with side braces and cap tops with straw or hay caps. Avoid cutting when wet and avoid handling dry leaves. Dry hay is ready when large stems twist without moisture. The station reports one ton per acre under pea vines on stubble.
