Hello, I just found this list when doing some research. I live in Western Colorado (Loma) and have a 6 acre horse pasture. We get one cutting in the Spring and pasture the horses for several hours a day (rotate pastures) for the rest of the year. We have worked hard to bring the strand back and now get @ 375-400 small bales off our field, which feed the horses for the year. Two things have come up this year that I am researching. First is using treated "biosolids" from a local municipality to spread on the field as fertilizer. I've always hated using chemical fertilizers but when we tried other stuff, it was very expensive and the yield was pitiful. Anybody have experience with that? Second is a recommendation from our neighbor to "chisel" our field to help w/ compaction and get oxygen back in the soil. I'd be interested in anybody's experience with either of these issues. Thanks in advance!
