I'm finally able to start working on my back 10 acres of Canary grass, make that "grass". I hate to just mow it down and leave it to brown in the field so I was thinking about gathering it up and making a series of layered compost piles. I've got a bunch of leaves, neighbour's horse manure, and a steady supply of chicken bedding to add to it.
The question is; what implement would best suit my needs.
I don't have plans for that acreage for about 5 years(beyond putting in a coppice grove) so I'll be generating tons of clippings each year that will just give up those nutrients back to the reeds and I'd rather use it to fuel my garden soil.
