I have a three acre field, I had oats and Spring Cal (triticale and field peas ) in this spring. I mowed that off in June to keep the oats from going to seed. My intentions were/ are to re plant with hairy vetch and rye to be plowed down in the spring as green manure. i am trying to get this field built up for vegetable production.
Right now, there is some clover and alfalfa but, mostly ragweed and queen anns lace. I mowed that all down today. Should I no till the rye and vetch into the stubble or plow down and disk first? This field may go into another cover crop next year yet to help add organic matter. What would you do? Thanks in advance.
