No, no, no! Do not feed buckwheat to horses! It causes photodermatitis the same as St. John's wort and Bishop's weed!

Bev, I'm planting some buckwheat when it warms up a little more. how
do you use it for your chickens? i was just planning to cut it when
it flowered and use it to build my compost pile. also thought about
seeing whether it could be dried and added to hay for the horses?
