Both are perfect for drilling into Bermuda or Bahia grass pastures and can be used to fertilize the grass as well as providing nutritious forage for grazing or making hay. Both cattle and deer see these peas to be a real plus over the typical Iron and Clay Cowpea planted in our area. Red Cowpeas offer more than 20 percent protein. To go along with that great protein, these cowpeas can be both heavily grazed or mowed low, and they'll come back growing strong. Other peas and even forage soybeans cannot claim this. It’s also a delicious pea for human consumption! 

This plant is an excellent Nitrogen builder for your soil.
