Field Peas
Our Products: Cover Crops > Field Peas
Plant this legume with oats for a real soil-building crop. The grains
provide ample biomass, as well as stalks for the peas to climb, and the peas
provide nitrogen. Field pea residues decompose rapidly, contributing up to 1.7
tons of dry matter and 100 pounds of nitrogen per acre. Field peas like cool
moist growing conditions and are frost-tolerant once established. Seed at 70-160#/acre
or 4#/1000 sq. ft.
Organic.
