Have a 15 acre field of mostly, well was mostly, alfalfa. Alot froze out, alot died from drought, ins adjuster says it is still below an insurance claim, based on HIS inspection. I need the hay, as new hay feild planted will not be a good producer till next year. Applied N and K, prior to rains, want to run a drill over the field with a grass mixture, possible some non GMOI beans, or small rais to thicken the stand, only for this one year, for 2 cutting possibly 3. Any suggestions, soil is lighter, my drill cut to get the larger seed in, but with rain forecasst for 5 of the next 7 days I could maybe just graze the ground. Any suggestions on seed to use? Alfalfa is currently about 4"-6" tall, will the drill ruin the current plants?
