Description
Spring Triticale is a vigorous, cool-season annual cereal that is a cross between wheat and rye. This unique combination creates an outstanding choice combining the cold hardiness and allelopathic effect of rye with the nutritious grain quality of wheat.
The plants have rapid spring emergence and aggressive tillering, producing dense vegetative growth ideal for green manure, forages or weed suppression.
Spring Triticale can be planted alone, but works well in cover crop mixes with peas, vetch, clover or tilling radishes. Reduce the seeding rate to 50% when combined with other crops.
It can be planted as soon as the soil can be worked, sooner than other cereals like oats. Under cool conditions, it outperforms spring wheat and barley, making it a good choice for early plantings.
Easiest to terminate when plants are still young, before the crop starts to produce heads. Mowing or tillage both work well.
