Spread Fast Cal and Clover Seed

Acid on the farm! I sure hope this works!
What happens here
After loading the Fast Cal, the presenter drives the Massey Ferguson 240 tractor, with the Tar River broadcast seeder attached, across the pasture. The seeder dispenses the Fast Cal in a broad, even pattern as the tractor moves. He maneuvers the tractor to cover the targeted areas, aiming for even distribution. Following the lime application, he loads two bags of Medium Top Ladino Clover Seed into the same broadcast seeder. He ensures the seeder is set to a very light spread rate for the clover. He then drives the tractor over the same areas, broadcasting the clover seed to complement the lime in improving soil health and pasture quality.
Goal: Apply Fast Cal and clover seed to the pasture for soil amendment.
