Early fall-winter forage production is particularly valuable as it allows flexibility for earlier grazing or increased stockpiling. The goal of The Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation's small grains breeding program is to develop cultivars with improved forage qualities, better fall production, improved ability to recover after grazing and better overall forage yields. Come see six of the new small grain varieties, selected for increased early season forage yields, recently released by the Noble Foundation.

The farm site of Jimmy Emmons: from the intersection of Highway 34 and Highway 47, proceed 3.5 miles east on Highway 47. Or from the intersection of Highway 183 and Highway 47, proceed 18.5 miles west on Highway 47. The plots are on the south side of Highway 47. This is a no-till site.
