## Notes from MCCP
### Annual Ryegrass - p74
- Holds soil, takes up excess N, outcompetes weeds
- Overseedable into corn, beans, and others
- Broadcast 10-40 lb/A
- Crosspollinates with perennial ryegrass and turf-type annual ryegrass
- Good grazing
- Heavy user of moisture and N
- Can become a weed - do not let it set seed
- C:N = 25-55
### Hairy Vetch
- Excellent N provider (to following crop)
- C:N = 8-15
- Moisture-thrifty
- Scavenges P
- vetch/rye mix at 15-25:40-70 lb
### Red Clover
- Suggestion to wait until corn is 10-12" tall, and after 6 weeks of pre-emergent herbicides (e.g. atrazine)
