Product Information
Oats are an extremely attractive addition to any food plot that is grown in the cooler months. This is also a popular choice for hunters that like to plant cereal grains such as grain rye. Deer can visit plots of oats for a larger amount of time but the first two months after germination are the most attractive time for deer. Oats planted in food plots for deer can be planted with legumes such as clover or peas and brassicas such as turnips, radish, kale or rape.
Oats are a cool-season annual grass that is a cost effective, reliable fall cover crop and has been used for many years. Oats are quite an adaptable and affordable crop that provides many benefits to farmers. Some of these benefits include: forage, weed suppression, erosion control, etc.
Oats prefer soils that are well drained and moderate fertility. Oats also grow best when the soil pH is 4.5-6. For maximum cover crop benefit, oats should be planted six to ten weeks prior to any frost.
Oats mature in approximately 60 days, and they can help prevent soil erosion in the short planting windows. Oat may prove especially valuable as a winter-long cover. Typically, oats winterkill with hard frosts and then they leave a thick residue. This provides a great soil-protecting mulch and insulator if planted with an overwintering crop like Alfalfa.
Oats can be either broadcasted or drilled with good success. Drilling the oats will provide the best results thought. If you are drilling the oats – drill them to a depth of ½ to ¾ inch. When drilling, the seeding rate should be 80-100lbs per acre and broadcasted at a rate of 90-150lbs. Oats are planted in the fall for optimal germination and growth.

United StatesSeed had good germination rate on really low rainfall....less than 1/2” of rain on 1/2 drilled planting and about 70% germination. I expect the rest to pop after this 1/3” of rain we got yesterday
Great! Glad you are seeing germination, it will do better with the rainfall. Seed needs water of course. Thank you for your review and for choosing Hancock Seed!
United StatesThe game animals love the plants.Great product and grows well in the southern hemisphere
Great! Happy to hear that the buck tale oats are thriving and the animals are already feeding on them! Thank you for your review and for choosing Hancock Seed!
United StatesSeeded well. But had problems keeping wild turkeys out of food plot. Turkey's ate lot's of seed before germination. Once germination took place, oats are growing well despite we are in a drought, Morning dew just enough to keep new growth moist. Very satisfied with seed.
Excellent! Glad you are seeing great results with the buck tale oats. Birds love seed, hope they didn't eat too much of it before it had a chance to get going. Thank you for your review!
