    I don’t know how you know how many hogs other people on this site have, but I’ll take your word for it. This plot was in a Green Cover blend in the spring with sorghum and millet in it and when the heads got ripe they destroyed the whole plot. Hell, they are even eating this elbon rye !

    How many hogs are too many ? One ! Click image for larger version

      Yes Alamo works great!

      You are best planting it in winter...its got a extremely hard seed coat that needs winter freeze/thaw cycles. And when I mean plant it...just broadcast it on top of the firm soil.

            Cool thanks. I guess we have been planting screens and didn't know it. Corn, lab lab and sun hemp all get that high.

              Use 4x8 sheets of plywood pretty reasonable could be up in a day hogs shouldn't bother it. You could use it like a funnel
