If your planting Rye grain then about 1 1/2 bushels per acre, about 84 lbs. per acre. This is thick enough for cover crop. IF your going to green chop it then we always plant 2 bushels per acre.
Also the Rye you plant this fall will grow a lot come spring. It will need to be sprayed or plowed under to kill it come spring. It will not die off until it is mature next July.
If you are wanting some thing easier to kill off next spring I would plant winter wheat. It is much easier to kill. Plant 2 bushels per acre if broadcast 1 1/2 if drilled.
If you had been a little earlier Oat work the best. They will grow up to a foot tall in the fall and then winter kill. It is too late for oats now. mid Sept is about the best.
