Using a recommended process from the T A&M Agri Center in Overton Texas I will plant cowpeas, Apache Clover and Forage Oats all at the same time in late August or first week of September. My plot is only 1/2 AC so it will be necessary to put up an electric 3-D fence to keep the deer off the peas until early October when I will remove the fence. The peas grow fast but will die off at first freeze usually mid November in NE Texas. Oats should be in good shape before the peas die and the clover will take off in March. The clover should last until I repeat the process next season unless I decide to plant to crops of peas (early summer, late summer)
The small patch of peas should be a great attractant in early October and should provide good forage until they die.
