    I'm going to broadcast plant oats and soybeans at two of my local spots. Whats the recommended lbs/acre of each?

    Oats are broadcast at 120 lbs/acre. Not sure about the beans.

    Greg do you usually plant oats from a local mill or do you buy name brand i.e. Buck Forage?

    I'm still working off of a bag of Buck Forage oats I bought last year. One thing I found is that even though I weighed the oats out and broadcast them, I could of used more as they were a bit sparse.
