[QUOTE="Tbrake, post: 1162020, member: 22322"] I'm wanting to plant some turnips this fall to help offset our shortage of hay.. I have a 65 acre field that is short season corn and I'm thinking we should start picking around the 20th of aug. So it will be corn stalks. Normally I would just put an electric fence arround it and let them graze the stalks but with the hay shortage I'm wanting more. I was thinking about no-tilling purple top turnips right into the corn stalks? How could I do that? We no longer have a no till drill because we broadcast and work in all our wheat. I was thinking just broadcasting the turnip Seed on top of the stalks and praying for a nice rain to get them up. Has anyone done this before? What would you do? [/QUOTE]
