Organic Ryegrass, Oregon Annual (lb)

- Inoculant: None needed
- Germination: 5-7 Days
- Plant Height: 3'
- Days to Maturity: 12 months
- Uses: Pasture grass, cover crop, erosion control
- Facts to Note: When used for cover crop or pasture, Ryegrass is usually mixed with annual legumes for nitrogen fixation and improved palatability. Grows in any soil but it will not tolerate long periods of flooding. Plant in fall or spring.

Let customers speak for us
I grow flats of this for my pet pigs, because of the high nutritional content. They love it. I find them waiting at the growing location every afternoon waiting for their fave. I've grown beautiful flats of pea sprouts and alfalfa for them too, but they turn up their snouts and walk away.
