I used to sow Red Clover in Fescue with an old John Deere grain drill with a seed box on. I had very good results. I have drilled it in the fall, but had better results in late Feb or early March. I had a stand once so thick, it killed the fescue, I never sowed over 5# per acre. If conditions are right with some of the new Red Clover a good stand will last 3 years. We combined seed several times, once I had 30 acres make 100# per acre. At a buck a pound I sold about 2000# that year. Ground that is up to fertillity for alfalfa, is the best, but doesn't have to be. Inoculating the seed helps, but not a must.
