Oats and feed peas

[Big Muddy rancher]

I have a pretty good crop of Brown Oats and feed peas coming along.

What's the best stage to cut this crop?

Would a conditioner on a Haybine be hard on the peas or should it be backed off a bit?

Back it off some or you will be shelling peas. Where are your mowers?

Figured it would get too dirty mowing and raking on breaking.

what about just swathing it??

Figured 25 ft would take forever to cure and green maybe to heavy on the canvass
