RE: best in dry

Marinestud; you're rainfall levels are sufficient for clover. Thre are a lot of prairie farmers that would love to get your annual precipitation.

I agree with Dan - Clovers would work fine for your area - try to plant By mid-June at the latest or After Aug 15th for your area if fall planting. Clover should get 6 weeks growth before the first hard freezes.

Almost any northern plot will work for you - corn, oats, and soybeans too for example.
