Synopsis As forage crops, oat‐legume mixtures were superior to oats alone in both protein content and protein yield per acre. As feed‐grain crops, oat‐pea mixture was superior to oats alone or oats‐vetch in protein yield per acre. On a sandy soil, oat‐legume mixtures produced more forage and oat‐pea mixture produced more seed than did oats alone. On heavier soils, seed yields of the mixtures were less than those of oats alone.
