[QUOTE="sheepdogtrail, post: 9283133, member: 151839"] Freeze dried IRG (Italian Rye Grass) could be a great forage tool (profitability) for you over the winter. Summer warm season it could struggle with the high temps, lack of water and humidity. That is where RC (Red Clover) and Chicory feel those gaps. Brassicas would do the same. Due to Flee Beetle pressure on the Brassicas you might have to rotate them in every 3 years for just 1 year. That is perfect for IRG. The other two years a legume and chicory will be hard to beat. If soil indexes are good, you could add a Plantain. Low PH (below 5.6) the plantain will struggle to produce a graze able crop. It will grow, but taste awful. [/QUOTE]
