Pasture Land Needs Slow Aid As Season Proceeds

Weather and overgrazing have left blue grass and native pastures weak with poor root reserves. Many pastures may not recover, requiring reseeding and temporary pastures. Rest is essential, and early grazing could destroy regrowth. Fall rye and wheat are recommended temporary pastures for Nebraska, with rye preferred for its prolific stooling.

Fall and Spring Rye Seeding Guidelines for Pasture

The guidance recommends sowing rye at about two bushels per acre for better grazing in fall and spring. Do not overgraz e this fall to preserve pasture for spring. Use 1934 rye seed or carefully stored 1933 seed if seeding rate is doubled, and perform a germination test. Year old rye germinates poorly. If fall rye seed is unavailable, winter wheat is a viable substitute, useful when other pastures are scarce. A supply of rye seed is being arranged through local elevators, with county agents helping locate stock.
