[QUOTE="steveR, post: 6751248, member: 66976"] I rate an aerator, especially if you have been grazing late or with over wintering sheep. Bought mine 25 years ago or more, and have rediscovered using it since I had a small light tractor again. Aber Uni saw some impressive results from using one... On our heavy clays, you can see the slit all summer! I first used in mid season when we used to have a lot of liquid sludge from the local sewerage farm, the slitting allowed a MUCH heavier dose to be applied and worked brilliantly. No artifical N in those days... ? Rolling in the spring when damp enough if I am mowing... I hate doing it but needs must at times and I have a light roll I can use and sometimes use a Cambridge roll when heavily poached by cattle feet! I roll first, then aerate. I used to roll/harrow but the bridge doesn't work with the 3m Opico tine harrow. might mod a 3pt trailed carrier some time. [/QUOTE]
