    Rye

    Species of plant

    Rye is a grass grown extensively as a grain, a cover crop and a forage crop. It is grown principally in an area from Eastern and Northern Europe into Russia. It is much more tolerant of cold weather and poor soil than other cereals, making it useful in those regions; its vigorous growth suppresses weeds and provides abundant forage for animals early in the year. It is a member of the wheat tribe which includes the cereals wheat and barley. Rye grain is used for bread, beer, rye whiskey, and animal fodder. In Scandinavia, rye was a staple food in the Middle Ages, and rye crispbread remains a popular food in the region. Europe produces around half of the world's rye; relatively little is traded between countries. A wheat-rye hybrid, triticale, combines the qualities of the two parent crops and is produced in large quantities worldwide. In European folklore, the Roggenwolf is a carnivorous corn demon or Feldgeist. Wikipedia

    Secale cereale, as you can see from the botanical name, is a cereal. You sow it in the fall, and it starts growing before the first heavy frost. Then, rye will continue to grow slowly under the snow, throughout the winter. In the spring, your young rye plants will shoot up and be ready for harvest by late July or early August.

    Cereal rye (Secale cereale L.) is an annual cool season grass commonly used as a cover crop. A notable advantage of CR compared to other cool season grasses is the presence of allelopathic compounds in the straw which can be used to suppress weed growth (Adhikari et al, 2018). Additionally, CR dry matter yields are sufficient for
