Abstract

Dry peas grown as a cash crop in southern Idaho
are usually harvested by the first of August, which
leaves the land bare and unproductive for the last
third of the growing season, unless the
peas
were
used as a nurse crop to establish alfalfa. This raises
the question: Could August, September and the
early part of October be utilized for forage production
from plants other than alfalfa?
