[QUOTE="scotston, post: 7790542, member: 32666"] I think rotation might be the key. We ended up with a clover understory by chance by using the shallow plough. This field was grass with clover for 4 years until 2020. It was deep ploughed (8 to 10 in) in spring 20, planted with peas and harvested early September. The clover had begun to grow back already and kicked off at the back end. Grazed with sheep over winter then shallow ploughed in spring this year and drilled with spring barley. I trialled the inter row hoe through and didn't notice too much clover but by September 1st, this is what we had. Completely clean of weeds just the clover. 2t/ac. This will be grazed again this winter. The bug life on the cutter bar was exceptional. I don't consider any issues with drying costs as I have a biomass powered floor dryer. Tip it up and walk away. For all crops. Even the the lupins and beans cutting today at 25%mc. [/QUOTE]
