Farming- a bunch of catastrophies that result in a lifestyle

Just wondering what you guys are sticking in for cover crops this year. I went with a blend mix of:
Wheat,oats, rye, triticale, winter peas, daikon radish, clover, and sugar beets.

A mix of rye and dwarf Essex rape on some parts of the garden, straight rye on the rest. I'm also using the mix for deer food plots to keep them away from the garden.

I spaded up most patches very deep (ameliorating) with several thin layers of OM. Then it was too late to sow even triticale. Now I´m looking for oat to seed early in March.
