OK - so I have a stand of orchard grass. Rotate in Timothy? Either way I'm still moving soil nutrients off the field when I bale and sell the hay and need to replenish them.
BTW - I should have mentioned it in my original post. Plowing IMHO is pretty much out of the question. We have as many rock in our soil as there is oil in the middle east. You dig a ditch and it looks like your plowing potatoes - LOL. There are massive rock piles around the farm where generations have stacked rocks out of these fields. Don't have the time or resources to pick rocks.
My present thinking is that whatever crop rotation would be either burning the field down to dirt and no till planting the next crop or overseeding over time from one grass to another. For example - overseed Timothy into the Orchardgrass over a period of several years until the Timothy dominates.
