Subject: Re: Ideas for worn out hay field



What is the compaction like in that field? We have been taking some CRP and hayfields out and rotating back in, and the compaction can really be impressive. I had one CRP field that had been in for something close to 20 years, and it chisled out all in chunks the size of a basketball. Same with Alfalfa fields. After several years of running over them with heavy equiment I like to either subsoil or chisel them out. Of course, this is "here" with high clay content soils and pretty impermeable subsoil.
