Planting Alfalfa

[Hutch]

I'm planting 10 acres of alfalfa, the field has corn stalks from last fall. I usually just disc and cullipack then drill, but I've never done this over corn stalks. Will this method work for this field or should I try something different? I'm concerned that there will to much of the corn stalks left over and prevent the seed from making good contact with the soil. I would like hear any suggestions or opinions
Thanks, John

When I seed alfalfa I always like a nice clean seedbed, I would moldboard plow and prepare a nice seedbed, you'll probably have less weed problems .
