Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Medicinal | Edible Uses Latin Name: Avena nudibrevis Family: Gramineae Author: Vavilov. Known Hazards: None known Mature Height: Mature Width: Habitat: Dry wasteland, cultivated ground and meadows, especially on heavier soils[200].
Cultivation Notes: We have very little information on this species, but it should be possible to grow it as a spring-sown annual in Britain, and might also succeed as an autumn-sown crop. A diploid species, it is of little commercial importance[57]. There is some doubt in our minds about the name of this species. A. nuda brevis is mentioned in [50] and one just might be a mis-spelling of the other[K]. The following notes are based on the general needs of the genus.
Succeeds in any moderately fertile soil in full sun[200].
Oats are in general easily grown plants but, especially when grown on a small scale, the seed is often completely eaten out by birds. Some sort of netting seems to be the best answer on a garden scale.
