Perrys Chaff is a mixture of oaten and wheaten hay. We cut predominately oaten hay, but also grow wheaten hay as a rotation crop due to the ability to treat oat related weeds in the paddocks. Wild Oats have a similar growing pattern and structure to chaffing Oats. They have a very low nutrient value, and multiply at a significant rate unless treated. Growing a Wheat crop allows us to eliminate wild oats from the paddocks they are in so that the next oat crop grown is cleaner and therefore the chaff is.
