Naked Oats (Avena nuda) are a cereal grain, first grown in central Asia around 100 B.C. Currently, they are grown worldwide because they are the most nutritionally packed cereal grain available on the market.
Oats planted for cattle forage are commonly planted with winter rye grain, winter ryegrass and rape, turnip, radish or kale. Oats planted in food plots for deer and other wildlife can be planted with winter legumes such as clover, winter peas and brassicas such as radish, rape, turnip or kale.
