Loading Fescue and Clover Seeds into Hoppers

okay so the next step here is we're gonna hop up and we're gonna start dumping grass seed in first thing we're gonna do is we're gonna load up this platform right here with grass seed so let's get busy doing that all right this is our Kentucky 32 fescue it's an end of fight free fescue for cattle pretty cool now we're gonna go up here on the platform and dump in our seed all right up on the platform get our fiscal you up there and basically we're gonna cut our bags open okay so guys this is Kentucky 32 fescue worried about $85 a bag on this there's how many bags four bags in there right now that'll get us a good start and we have one two three four seven more bags that we're going to put out okay this will all even out as we hit bumps and smooth out okay pretty cool now the next hopper we're going to use is going to be our wheat hopper okay so we're going to go ahead and burn through that wheat we're going to take a little bit ride a little bit around here and get these spots that are in the middle of the field first and get that wheat out of there we're also going to load the clover hopper and I'll show you the clover hopper right here will close the week and here's the clover hopper that's what it looks like inside pretty simple will load the clover hopper up and get going with that now the clover cost one hundred and twenty dollars for a 50-pound bag we're doing about twenty-five to thirty acres here that'll totally cover that you might be asking hey why is he putting clover in with his fescue I'm putting clover in with my fescue for the first few years to get it established well clover fixes nitrogen to the soil fescue loves nitrogen we're going to feed that grass seed and then we'll probably go over it with a herbicide to kill the broadleaf at some point maybe we may go organic and we may not use herbicides at all now the reason that I'm putting the clover seed down is because of a man named Joel Salatin he wrote a book called salad bar beef I'll post a link down below if you want to raise your cows on a salad bar it's pretty cool it's interesting book to read and I went up to Polyface farm where Joel's farm is if you've never heard of him then I'm surprised you're on this channel really really cool guy nice place and what I noticed on his farm was lots of clover in the fields the fields were beautiful in green and I think the element that was making them beautiful in green was that clover fixing that nitrogen that's a little bit more difficult to get…
