only when its completly dry and you can travel on it and workit without 'smearing around' put the spring tines (with a leveller tine bar on the back )through it tofurther air and create some lose soil to move around and hide the seed /give seed to soil contact...that will then be broadcast on. if lumpy and too open it might need a roll or press before broadcast. again only if dry enough.So we have décided to try to outwinter our cattle. Thé area where we have thé ring feeders is getting a thrashing.
We have been Moving thé feeders around to try and spread thé fertility.
I dont liké seeing cows lying down in thé mud so they have accèss to 1 ha of grasse as well (in thé background of thé photo)

We will do a reeseed in spring.
What would you guys do?
We thought keep it simple roll - Sow(hand seeder) -,Roll.
Something that grows lots if biomass.
(IRG persian Clover, crimson Clover -phacelia)
Or perhaps but in some seedy Hay and Bâle graze it. (We only have haylage left).
Thoughts?
einbok or similar then as long as its dry , a lightweight arable type roll or press to finish. or just roll to finish as long as its dry ..(no harrows)twice at different angles with an arable type roller or press.
dont work it moisty though , most important
