Subject: Need to reseed my calving pasture.


south west iowa
We have an 80 that we move all the cows to before we start calving. As they calf we move the cow & calf off each day as they calf. But we had to put the cows on it last fall and they just about plowed it with all the muddy weather we had. Would like to seed it to something like rye but don't want to kill out what grass that is there now. How many pounds of what seed do we need to put on to help with the feed of the cows and give a good place to calf in. We always feed the cows a TMR mix every day when they are on it to. We will put cows back on it about the first part of April as we start calving the last of April. We are going to spread manure on it as soon as it dry out to not leave much tracks and plan on harrowing it after we spread. Any help all of you can give would be appreciated.
