Anyone tried liquid iron on pasture to remove moss ?

[Jonp]

I've got alot of moss this year and hundreds of rooks and jackdaws plucking it out looking for something to eat. When they've had a go it looks like it's had a real good heavy chain harrowing. It mostly dies off as spring advances especially after a good harrowing.

I found this on the Yara website. It looks like its for grape vines so not sure about grass. However their other micro nutrients stuff usually dissolves well and doesn't clog my sprayer.

What about your friend basic slag from the iron works?

I did think about that myself but I’ve got to be honest i wasn’t sure what was in it, I suppose it’s the remnants of making iron ?

Aerating grassland ( or lawns) sorts out moss. A grassland subsoiler or slitter.

My mate used it on the golf course to remove moss, it also improves the colour of the grass

Being using a slitter and springtine Harrow for years bud but the moss is very stubborn in a few fields and needs another method
