Note from Sir Joseph Banks
Rye received from France two years ago, of which a partial Trial was made on a bed in a Garden, where it succeeded very well it was called Seigle. Mr St. Jean ordered to be sown on St. John's day in June; it was to grow and produce plentifully Supply of green fodder all the Sutumn, and next Summer, give a crop of corn, which certainly the sample in the Garden fully answered, and when it came into ear was stronger and taller than any Rye I have ever seen.
Whether it be usefull in this Country what will be the inconvenience of its occupying Land for so long a period, whether the fodder gathered from it will repay the time are questions I cannot answer, the quantity of seed is one quart.
