Its wide-ranging root system makes it one of the best green manures for improving soil structure. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is an excellent soil renovator and pioneer crop for new fields as it stabilizes excess soil and manure nitrogen. Grain rye can grow up to four to five feet and is very fast to establish, producing deer feed in as little as fourteen days in ideal conditions. This winter grazer rye grain is preferred by deer, turkey and rabbit. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the best growing conditions for 401 Rye?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlorida 401 rye is a small grain most widely used for winter grassing. Rye is more cold tolerant than oats and generally produces more forage than either oats or wheat.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDo not plant too early but wait until the cool weather begins. Grain rye varieties from northern states will produce little forage in late fall or early winter and will usually be severely damaged by leaf rust. Therefore, only plant varieties recommended for the south eastern United States.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSometimes a grass or grain may be planted as a wind barrier to protect food crops like tomatoes. It is planted between the rows of the food crop to grow taller and therefore shield the food crop from the damaging effects of strong wind. Florida 401 is an excellent choice for winter wind barrier applications. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seed Ranch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52884830781671,"sku":"xvm1792572704495","price":29.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/9002\/9031\/files\/fl-401-winter-rye-grain-seed---50-lbs_1.jpg?v=1792572711","url":"https:\/\/www.greenhavenmarket.shop\/products\/fl-401-winter-rye-grain-seed-50-lbs","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
