We plant buck oats and are going to expand our plots this year b/c the deer have eaten them down to the dirt they last two years. There is a new product out called Gain that treats the soil like lime. They say it is like adding 1000lbs of lime per acre and a gallon concentration treats I believe an acre at $20. So it's worth looking it and it might save big bucks when it comes to liming.

I planted the cheaper COOP oats this year with winter weat and winterpeas . It all looked good the deer kept it looking like a carpet all winter till this spring it took off again. I planted this mix in about 5 diff places some plot 1/2 acre some smaller.
i planted some in farm fields after the beans were cut . I will repeat the same mix this year. I paid less than 100 $ and I had alott of seed 400lbs of wheat 400lbs of oats and a 50# sack of Austrailian Winter peas. and a few pounds of white ladino clover.
I didn't put the clover in the over all mix ,just a few areas where I was not plannig on disking up for a few years.

We buy Coker 820 Oats each year from Clemmons and have never had a problem with cold weather.
