I have heard that too, but we had armyworms in the bermuda hay field beside the alfalfa last year 3 different times and they never to my knowledge got into the alfalfa.

I have a small field (3 acres) I have been getting ready for Alfalfa. Started liming heavy last year, bottom plowed it a week or so ago. I am disking it a couple times a week trying to get it as smooth as I can, then I'll fertilize, cultipack it, seed, then cultipack again. I'm hoping to get a couple cuttings of square hay off it, and get to hunt it as well.

Army worms typically don't prefer legumes like soybeans or alfalfa. They can build up high enough but they prefer monocots like Bermuda or corn or millet over legumes.

Any idea on the cost to sprig perennial peanuts? Only info I found online was for ornamental varieties that produce seeds.

No idea at all.

Look at alfagraze 600 it's round up ready and it can be no tilled in with a burn down on field before you drill it. It's for the southeastern u.s.its for the southeastern u.s.
