    Tillage radish and Austrian Winter peas

    Has anyone grown these cover crops for seed? I am interested in trying.

      Yes, it probably can be done, but up here we are still too far north to successfully get a TR crop consistantly year over year. We are down by Medicine Hat (Tilley) and we are still too short a season. A lot of the production takes place in Oregon where they are in a much longer growing season. The guys that I am aware of who have tried it gave up after a few years of continued failed crops.
      As far as Winter Peas goes, I really have no production experience with them. We have issues from year to year with bare ground and overinter survivability with cereals. I know the Winter Peas are even more touchy that way.

      Not much useful information but I hope this helps.
