Winter Oat

Cosaque Black Oats

An overwintering oat that has a wide leaf and dense crown, Cosaque has superb weed suppression. It is perfect for grazing or baleage production and cover cropping but is challenging to produce dry hay.

  • Moderate fall and tremendous spring production
  • Highly palatable and digestible
  • Root-knot nematode suppression
  • Relatively tolerant of “wet feet"
