I tested my pastures and hay ground this year, since it is my property and my neighbors that border each other, I thought they might be very similar. My hay yield seems to be a little better. (I converted hay fields to pasture this year)
I would have thought it would have required liming, but both PH's were around 6.15 and UT did not recommend liming for cool season pasture/hay with legume. I do have a lot of clover in the fields.
My recommendation given was 30 N 90 P 60 K lbs. per acre for both fields. I haven't priced it yet or got to spreading but I'll end up spreading it maybe by this weekend. Been waiting on some rain, which we are still pretty dry for this time of year.
