For northern areas, a cold tolerant variety, which will not freeze out during the winter months, is essential,” says Hofstetter. “Use varieties which best fit your needs and rotations. For recom mendation of varieties in your area, contact your county or state extension agent. “A soil analysis should also be done prior to seeding,” Hofstetter recommends. "Apply lime, phosphorous, and potash if needed. Lime should be applied ap proximately six months prior to seeding, phosphorus and potash should be applied just prior to plowdown. “Clovers do well within a pH range from 6.0 to 7.0. Alfalfas do best within a range of 6.5 to 7.0. Both clover and alfalfa use ap- •e clover not only protects the soil in winter, it also combats weeds and adds nitrogen when plowed under in the spring. proximately 30 pounds of phosphorus per acre to make four ton yields. Nitrogen is not necessary for legume establish ment.” The potential for this type of overseeding for reducing nitrogen costs and herbicide costs, may help to draw more attention to organic cultural practices from the commercial farming sector. Certainly it is worth looking into, and perhaps as Jerry Webb suggests, there must be "a com mon sense rationale somewhere between the all-out, one-pass chemical farmer and the organic purist, that includes some pesticides, some fertilizers, some animal manure, some crop rotations, and some good old fashion soil management.” Eodale Research Center will conduct a Fanner Field Day August 10 with two sessions at 9:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. All persons interested in learning more about regenerative agriculture and organic cultural practices are encouraged to attend.
