    So best to keep equal amounts of fertilizer and seed?

    Broadcasting turnips

    I want to sow a small area of turnips with a Vicon wag tail spreader. Is it best to mix with fertilizer? Will the turnip seed get carried as far as the fertilizer or will I have missed strips/ banding.

    3 in 1 feeders

    Could I leave feeder unattended for 2 weeks for 50 ewes pre lambing if using whole oats and Soya pellets?

    Green manuring

    Im thinking of using red clover as a green manure. Im looking for soil structure beneifits as well as organic matter. Does this mean grazing it in the first season? If so what are the risks of bloat in sheep. I'd need to set stock it but would have 2/3 of field in grass. Any thoughts appreciated.
