Instead of planting all of my fields with a mix, such as WMS Alabama Blend or Mississippi Mix, I am considering planting one of my food plots with only Oats and Peas. Anyone planted this combination and, if so, what were your results?
Thanks.

Here ....... Nothing but oats . If you have many deer winter peas won't last no time
If it has deer on it or near the bag I won't buy it .
Plant you 3 bushel or about per ac. . You growing for mass not seed production

An Oat that will ignore frosts is always your friend.

Thanks. I've been planting oats. peas, and clover for the last 4 or 5 years and haven't been let down yet. The peas are great candy for early season and the oats and clover hang in there all season.

I planted 2 bags of peas and 1 bag rye on an acre. I also added some clover for when the peas are gone. The peas last longer then 60 dollars of corn.

Oats and Triticale work for me.
I love my country, but don't trust my government.

But to the op, maybe add a brassica and you will have it all covered? Sounds like a pretty good combo. I would go maybe tritacle and peas etc
