1 2017 Small Grain Forage Variety Trial Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service Dwight Sexton, CEA-Ag, Gonzales Co.; Julie Zimmerman, CEA-Ag, Caldwell Co.; Rachel Bauer, CEA-Ag, Bastrop Co.; Travis Franke and Jeff Hanselka, CEAs-Ag, Guadalupe Co. Cooperator: The Luling Foundation Farm Location: Luling, Texas Situation: The year round availability of high quality forage is a constant challenge for beef cattle producers. Winter pastures are grown extensively in South Central Texas to provide supplemental feed to stocker cattle, heifers, and mature cows. Most winter pastures consist of oats, wheat, or ryegrass. Major considerations in selecting small grain forage varieties include yield potential, season of optimal growth, and disease resistance. Leaf rust is a problem in most years, with some years much worse than others. Objectives: 1) To demonstrate proper management practices. 2) To compare yields, disease resistance and other characteristics of several small grain forage varieties. Method: Cooperator: The Luling Foundation Farm Tillage: The seed bed was disked twice, and a firm seed bed was established. The seed was drilled, and then a roller-packer followed to improve the seed-soil contact. Planting Date: October 25, 2016 Seeding Rates: Oats 96 lbs/acre Wheat, Triticale 80 lbs/acre Ryegrass 30 lbs/acre
2 Plot size: Plot sizes were 12 feet wide, and had a length of 50 feet, with three replications randomly located in the field. The plots were harvested on two occasions with a sub-sample size collected of 1 square foot. Following the harvest of each sub-sample, the plots were shredded in an effort to simulate grazing and reduce lodging. Fertilizer: 250 lbs. of were applied on 11/2/2016. Harvest: The plots were harvested two times, on March 6, and April 29, These results are listed in Table 1. Multiple Year Averages: An average of previous years harvest is compiled in Table 2 to include multiple years average dry matter yield.

7 Conclusions: The plot was planted into dry conditions in the Luling area. The following growing season included limited moisture, with below average growing conditions. Spring rains came late to affect the conditions for the plots. Rust damage was heavy on the oat, wheat, and triticale varieties. Producers should note that the totals accumulated from this study represent results under the conditions that were present during this trial, and may not see the same results under their own growing conditions. Results over more years are needed to give producers a true indication of trends that can be expected with different varieties. We wish to thank the following groups for assisting with this trial: The Luling Foundation, Mike Kuck, manager, and his staff, for assisting with this trial; W. James Grichar, Texas A&M AgriLife Research and Extension-Beeville for assistance with the statistical analysis; and the following companies for donating seed for this trial: Barenbrug USA, East Texas Seed Company, DLF International Seed, and Pogue Agri-Partners Inc.

Reference to commercial products or trade names is made with the understanding that no discrimination is intended and no endorsement by the Texas A&M System is implied. Readers should realize that results from one experiment do not represent conclusive evidence that the same response would occur where conditions vary.
