Austrian Winter Peas

Austrian winter peas are a versatile cool-season legume used for forage, wildlife plots, and cover crop mixes that add diversity and nitrogen fixation. OSU includes Austrian winter peas in winter legume systems, and Eckroat highlights them as a useful cover crop or forage for wildlife. For Oklahoma growers, they are a smart choice when building a cool-season mix designed to improve soil, attract wildlife, and add grazing or browse value during the fall-to-spring window.
