Name three emergency pasture crops?

Here it can't be anything you would plant because of lack of moisture. So it would have to be the "long pasture" or the road right of ways.
I use to tell the sheepherder to move them down a road slow enough that they ate all the feed on it.

Sudan grass, rape, rye, and vetch.

Dale, we graze the "long acre" here a lot too. There are a couple of right of ways along my farm that are wide enough I sometimes cut them for hay.
