[QUOTE="Saltydawg, post: 219213, member: 2944"] I would listen to the advice already given in this thread. Get soil samples done and talk to your county ext. You will probably end up using Timothy, orchard grass, or canary grass....mixed with a legume of some sort like red clover or birdsfoot trefoil. Those are the most common pasture grasses up here but not the only ones. (canary grass usually only used in really wet fields) I would caution heavily against disturbing the grass you already have growing without adequate pasture elsewhere. It takes a while for freshly planted grass to grow and mature to the point that cattle can graze it without killing it. [/QUOTE]
