[QUOTE="Richardin52, post: 1126885, member: 18391"] I read once that if you put about 50 - 50 loose minerals and grass seed and let the cows eat it free choice that the cows will spread seed as they eat the minerals. I am sure some seed does go through a cows gut and is still viable just think of mustard seeds in your garden when you use cow manure. Anyway I tried it once on regular pasture but could never really tell if it was working. I'm planning on opening up some old grown up pasture and was wondering if anybody else has tried this and have any insights as to what they have found. What grass seed has the best chance of making the trip through the gut etc? [/QUOTE]
