Last Aug-Sep. I broadcasted some oats. Like I am sure many others experienced, the plots did basically nothing due to lack of any moisture subsequent to the planting.
This spring, it appeared that last fall's oats had carried over and were growing this year. Below is a recent image of one of two plots. What is the best thing to do with a plot like this. Some local feedback I have received was to let the oats mature, dry out, and cut in mid-late summer. After the cut, lightly disc the cut oats and drag like a person would with a fall broadcast. Will this produce an oats plot for this fall's hunting seasons ?? Or are there better strategies to employ under these circumstances ??
Thanks in advance for any feedback/ideas.
