I've had a long battle with rushes . You have two problems, those growing and the seed bank . Best way to get rid of them is with Roundup , either weed wipe or spray . If you want to reseed as long as the ground is dry and level enough then burn it off and direct drill , ploughing will just bring up more seeds , if you want to go one better then put a short term ley leave it two years then burn and drill again , make sure the PH is well up , rushy land tends to be acidici have feild here thats been left for good few decades, i drained it a couple of years ago yn been spraying the rushes for the last 2 years and got rid of 95% of them. my question is would ploughing the feild bring back the rushes? or should i just direct drill it?
