Thanks. I like how the playful cattle flanking your right brought the video to a quick end.

Do you recommend alfalfa be added to the overseeding mix?

The varieties you mention, would they perform about the same here in Moses Lake?

So you graze just after overseeding but then do not let cattle in to at least new grass in 8 inches high? From your experience what sort of time frame is that? I have brought a new farm and now looking at breaking up the huge paddocks that are already there to do rotational grazing

Non till is far superior than broadcasting. In cultivated ground not such an issue but for under sowing direct drilling ensures 100 % soil contact

I learned in times past that new alfalfa seed cannot be sown among a standing crop of alfalfa as the two plants will kill each other. Alfalfa cannot be reseeded like grasses. If I am wrong on this, then something has changed in plant genetics since I grew up on a dairy farm decades ago.

Very good recommendations. But you didn't talk about the reverse. You didn't talk about alfalfa overseeding. One method to do this is with a pasture no-till drill. I oversaw a program that did this in West-Central Idaho for a Conservation District that used this method. Worked amazingly well where sufficient water was available for germination and establishment. Very good video!

Unless something has changed over the decades, you cannot overseed alfalfa with new alfalfa seed, as the new will kill the standing alfalfa and vice versa. That's what I learned in decades past, and I would advise to check that out before overseeding and ruining what you have. Alfalfa must be ploughed up, and a new crop sown, preferably under a cover crop such as wheat or oats. Rotating to corn or beans in between would assure the old alfalfa plants are killed off.

Contact your local feed store, and/or your local County Extension Agent, NRCS, University, you name it. Also find a nearby farmer whom has achieved what you're after and ask him or her.

I just called my county and found out that they rent a no-till drill for $10 per acre or $100 per day. They have a 7-foot and a 10-foot.

Good job. That's really a GREAT way to do it. You posted that one year ago. How'd ya fare?

@theffa1928 12 жыл бұрын

What about using a no till drill to interseed your pasture instead of broadcasting?

@GetRhythm2011 2 жыл бұрын

No till drills are ideal for seeding nearly anything anywhere. I highly recommend using one, and they are often available at the local NRCS or Extension Agent office. Good luck.

It wasn't at all clear which part of which country applies to. Certainly not Montana.

why not use a no-till seeder to get better germination rates?

No till is way out of my price range where I am.

Please introduce black soldier flies to your field. Just seeing all those flies biting the cattle reminds me of my poor boer goats balls. They were all bit up but now we have fish and chicken feed just by tossing dog or goat poop in the larvae bin.

By the way his balls are all better hair has returned and no flies around the coop or barn
