alfalfa question

[BSK]

I've always thought it would be nice to have an alfalfa plot.....but after being educated by reading this thread I've come to the conclusion that alfalfa doesn't fit into our management plan....I never realized it was that complicated to grow a nice stand.....I clearly understand now why alfalfa hay is so expensive.

That's why, in all my years of working habitat management projects in ridge-and-hollow terrain, I've only seen ONE example of successful alfalfa production. And the landowner spent a huge amount of time and money maintaining it.
