Talking about what is the absolute simplest method we could refine this down to…….

Once your soil surface is turned around and in good condition…simply broadcasting our fall mix of cereal grain, clover, and brassica into a standing crop is a real possibility given that the standing crop is in the right conditions. Some areas of my leave rows were still a little too thick to allow enough sunlight to penetrate through to the ground…..other areas like the ones below worked out really nice. Again, it’s this canopy effect of the overstory that’s playing a role. If the summer crop was too thick maybe we mow the top half of it off to let light to the “forest floor”……If it’s thin enough that the seeds can establish in amongst the dieing summer plants….then maybe we just broadcast and walk away. This is what I’m really shooting for but it may not always work out the way we want and mowing may still be needed.
