Fall Seeding of Oats an Advantage
Fall seeding of oats has advantages over spring sowing in many Southern states with better yields and earlier maturity. It supports soil cover in winter, allows lighter land prep and less fertilizer, and fits crop rotations such as cotton corn oats cowpeas. Farmers Bulletin 1119 from USDA explains varieties, soils, fertilizers, seed treatment, sowing methods, and harvesting.

Indiana farm demonstrations show fertilizer and seeding gains
Two hundred pounds of 16 percent phosphate per acre raised wheat yields about ten bushels per acre in Putnam County demonstrations led by County Agent A. Jackson. Stanely Smith in Laporte County found six and five pecks per acre of Rosen rye seed both improved, with eight bushels gained on the smaller rate. Community action aims to seed after the Hessian fly date to limit spread in Newton County. Floyd County farmers collaborate with Purdue Extension to produce seed for next season. A Richland township committee and Redkey business leaders plan a farmers short course at Redkey next winter. Nelson & DePoy advertise 88 acres for sale at $135 per acre.
