[QUOTE="Ouachita, post: 1712718, member: 16802"] You're a few years ahead of me, but I've started adjusting the pH and nutrient. I also have about 80 acres forage. Most of it is newly cleared from pine and hardwood timber. I spread 200 tons of lime, October 2020 and 204 tons of broiler litter October 2021. The lime was $8,400, including an 80 mile one way haul, and spread. The litter was $5,200 including 6.5 mile one way haul and spread. I haven't done a soil sample this year, but before the lime, my pH was between 4.8-5.5, and really liked to grow ragweed and prairie grass, and something my wife calls "pokey plants". She hates them. When she sees them, she goes to the house and gets a garbage bag and a shovel. Covers the plant with the bag and then digs it up. [/QUOTE]
