You can plant it at 75-100 lbs/ac. The previous pic was planted at 100 lbs/ac due to my high deer density and heavy browsing pressure during the winter months. That actually turned out to be a little too thick come spring though as the rye just about shaded everything out….including my clover. Looking back, I probably could have given it one mowing early in the spring and had a better balance of clover and rye. Someone with less browsing pressure may just want to back off to planting a lower rate of 75 lbs/ac in the beginning. Again, this was using zero herbicide.



Do you get any volunteer rye?
