    You are doing what we do each season using a Aerator made by Industrus America that stabs bigger holes allowing everything you stated but with one added benifit, With Hybrid Bermuda grass it cuts the under ground rhyzones stimulating the runner to grow new plants, more stems more leaves..... Ceased Row cropping Cotton and peanuts 6 years ago to sell hay commercially..... Yearly average is about 10 4x5 rounds from 200 acres...........

    We use a pasture renovator. It rips down about 12” to get past hard pan. Only problem is when I get where we have shallow rock it brakes the shear bolts and gotta do quick repair. I have learned where the rock is and just stay away from it. Also you need a lot of horsepower for them. Thanks for sharing.

      As mentioned in the video any kind of tillage brings up tons of rocks here in south central Missouri. The rocks are literally everywhere and realistically anything that turns dirt over is going to be a rock picking fest. You will see in our later videos from last year when we made a new hayfield on some land that we will be farming. It's unfortunate but just how our ground is.

    From all the broomsedge in the field, it needs lime badly! Or you could brush hog it early to promote grass growth and help choke out the broomsedge.

      Soil tests would show our souls are healthy and not lacking any nutrients. We have limed it to bring it back to healthy soil, the problem is that when you have a strong stand of broomsedge it takes time to overtake it with other grasses. Last year we did not do a second cut which helps the broomsedge but there were other warm season grasses we wanted to let seed out

      @Freedom Farms If your soil test say it's good then I'd go with it.
