At this stage the yield proved to be 15 to 18 tons of green matter or 3 to 4 tons of dry matter per acre last April. If permitted to grow longer it becomes more woody, does not turn under so well and decays less rapidly. By attaching a chain to the plow all growth can ordinarily be turned under.

It does best if sown in the same manner as described for the clover. As it does not grow as rapidly during the winter, it will usually not be ready to plow under as early. Thirty pounds of seed per acre will be sufficient. Peas sown very thickly (125 to 200 pounds per acre) during fall or winter will give a small yield of vines and in addition fur-.
