Southern Green ryecorn is an exceptionally fast establishing grazing option particularly when sown late into cold conditions.
Providing early feed, Southern Green is ready to graze three weeks before oats and will offer multiple grazing opportunities when managed correctly.
Unlike common ryecorn, Southern Green produces high quality feed at a time when feed is in short supply.
Highly palatable whilst in the vegetative stage, Southern Green is grazed preferentially before oats in early winter but can become unpalatable in spring because stems are more fibrous than those of other cereals.

When can I start grazing Southern Green?

What are the rainfall and soil requirements?
Southern Green requires a minimum of 400mm annual rainfall and medium soil fertility (Olsen P 15–20). It should be managed rotationally for grazing and is an annual pasture.
