[QUOTE="Douglas, post: 587257, member: 8840"] So I was out on the farm cultipacking some fescue. I came up with this crazy idea. So how do you include clover in a fescue pasture when you may save for hay from time to time? Since reading here for a few weeks it seems the nitrogen from clover production is not in the soil but through recycled waste. Why not sow the grass and clover in adjacent strips about the width of your fertilizer spreader. Then you could fertilize the grass only. You could also spray the grass for weeds maybe. I know seeding it would be time consuming but would it work. One problem would be when it was grazed, the cows would clean up the clover first. But I wonder if that is true. Anyone thought about this before? [/QUOTE]
