[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 734668, member: 7509"] Mine is heavy clay on rocky hillsides. Soil depth varies a lot from place to place. This type soil should never be turned over or you will lose a lot more of it. Let's face it, if we had prime farm ground it would be priced much higher and in corn, cotton or some other high value row crop, etc. Cattle make sense when they can harvest useful forage off of ground that can not or should not be cropped. Generally it seems to me that the best grass for a given soil is whatever would tend to grow there naturally if left alone (other than weeds). In my case various clovers do well in a mixture of grasses. Jim [/QUOTE]
