[QUOTE="neilo, post: 3623702, member: 348"] What's there now? If it's old pp, and/or couch, ploughing it under will likely are it look clean and will hinder it for a while, but it will come back through in the new ley. Glyphosate pre cultivation is really the most effective way of destroying the existing grass. Why do you say glyphosate is not an option? Or are you signed up with the SA nazis?:scratchhead: The other thing to consider, assuming it is currently in pp, is that there are several pests (especially Fritfly, wireworm and leatherjackets) formerly controlled by chlorpyrifos (Dursban), that can no longer be effectively controlled. It would be better if you could plant a break crop before sowing the new ley, such as a brassica forage crop. That wouldn't completely remove the threat, particularly from wireworm, but it would reduce it somewhat. [/QUOTE]
