Hi Steve,

Fodder radishes were used as traditional over-winter forage relished by animals like sheep. Related forages are mustards, fodder kale, forage rape, stubble turnips as well as other root crops such as Mangels (large fodder beets). Check http://www.sheepmagazine.com/issues/05_06_04.html#article3 for more info, and you can google.

Greetings---i could use some ideas for winter fodder for sheep. i have heard about using honey locust for that but does anyone have experience with using other plants to cut down on winter food purchases? this would be for eastern Pennsylvania.---steve hoog
