Hulless barley and cover crop info


Hulless-barley - looks like a good first grain to grow!  Plant in the early spring along with peas.

Looks like in addition to alfalfa and perhaps vetch (rabbits like vetch), buckwheat should be strongly considered as a cover crop.  Buckwheat grows fast and gathers (and makes available upon composting) phosphorus.
