We Provide

PREMIUM QUALITY SEED

We specialize in small grain seed including oats, barley, wheat, rye, triticale, and pea mixes.

ANTIGO

Maturity: Early
Lodging: Low
Height: Medium-Short

Antigo is named after our home-town location.
Scale tipping test weights with extraordinary yield!
Test weights averaging 39-41lbs in the UW trials. Average plant heights have been 35-38 inches during four years of trials in Wisconsin. It has been moderately resistant to crown rust and Barley Yellow Dwarf Virus (BYDV).

HAYDEN

Maturity: Mid-Late
Lodging: Medium
Height: Medium-Tall

Hayden has excellent yields and test weights. We have seen yields over 100 bu/ac and test weights of 38-41 lbs! Resistance to crown rust is good and resistance to BYDV is very good. Plant height is around 40 inches making it one of our tallest oat varieties.

Reins

Maturity: Early
Lodging: Low
Height: Short

Reins is an early oat with excellent yields and test weights. Reins stays relatively short so it resists lodging well. We have seen yields well over 100 bu/ac and test weights up to 41 lbs/bu! Disease resistance is good, but a fungicide is recommended to avoid crown/leaf rust.

Forage Oats

Laker

  • Laker is a forage oat that produces lush, dark green, leafy biomass.
  • In state variety trials it is one of the highest yielding forage oat lines in terms of DM tons.
  • Laker has a high forage quality, similar to Forage Plus in terms of Relative Forage Quality (RFQ) and Crude Protein (CP%).
  • Laker also has high milk production, similar to Forage Plus.

OATS Uncertified

OGLE Released in 1981

Can produce great yields
in the absence of leaf rust

Maturity: Mid Season
Lodging: Medium-High
Height: Medium

 

Ogle is a very well known variety that has been around for decades. It’s a mid-season oat that shows good yields as long as it avoids leaf rust which it is susceptible to. Though newer genetics from varieties such as Esker have surpassed Ogle in yielding ability and disease tolerance, Ogle is still overall a good variety.

BARLEY

KEWAUNEE

Consistently high yielding
Great disease resistance

Lodging: Low
Height: Medium
Kewaunee is a great grain and forage barley. It’s a six rowed smooth-awned variety that consistently shows high yields, good test weight, and good disease resistance.

Mixes & Forage

LAKER CLASSIC OATS AND PEAS MIX

 

This is an all new mix that we’re excited to offer to customers. This mix takes our new late maturing Laker oats and pairs it with an Arvika pea that allows for a great match to produce excellent forage yield and quality. Unlike other pea & oat mixes that use early to mid season varieties, this mix uses the late maturity of Laker oats which allows the growers to harvest when the oats are at mid to late boot stage – which gives the best feed quality oats can give you while also taking the peas off when they’re budding, giving them the highest protein levels you can get.

BARLEY AND PEAS MIX

This mix gives growers a high tonnage, high protein forage product.

TRITICALE AND PEAS MIX

This mix can generate slightly higher protein levels than pea and oat mixes due to the thicker leaves that triticale produces.

PEAS

4010 peas work well in mixtures with small grains to make a highly palatable forage.

TRITICALE

A versatile small grain that works well for grazing, silage, or baling. Triticale is a favorite for mixing with peas.

FALL PLANTING

WINTER RYE

A very popular and versatile choice for cover crop, forage, or grain production. Rye is very cold tolerant and can be seeded late in fall.

OATS

Oats establish quickly and provide great soil coverage. They will winter kill naturally without the use of a herbicide.
