I have 4 acres currently planted in milo. Next spring I'd like to plant alfalfa in this field. Of course I'll get a soil report but normally will I have to add much fertilizer and lime to get the alfalfa going?
This field is on a hill top and so drainage should be good which I understand is good for alfalfa, is that correct?
Any tips on alfalfa I should know? I plan to have a local farmer cut and bail the alfalfa if that is necessary or would it be sufficient to just cut it? If so what length should I leave it during the summer?
This is my first year of aggressively planting food plots and I've had a blast and learned a lot, but I've still got a lot more to learn. This forum has really been helpful.
