A very effective erosion crop, much like oats, stabilizes hilly slopes and provides cover for slower growing species to become established. Research shows browntop helps to suppress root-knot nematode within the soil. Easily reseeds with viable seeds remaining in the soil for years. An excellent regenerating food plot for wildlife. Plant from early spring to fall. Tolerates low fertile and acidic soils making this a good way to add organic matter to the soil.
