Something is wrong with what you said. 10 to 15 pounds of alfalfa seed per ACRE plus a few pounds of grass seed per ACRE is on par but many growers tweek those rates to suit their needs.

If highly wet drainage could run a few hundred dollars per acre but there will be a need to investigate practicality as you may have a situation where an outlet for the artificial drainage may not exist. Drainage can be circumvented somewhat if you go with species that will grow under wet condition but then you have to look at marketability of crops such as Red Clover, Timothy, Reed Canary Grass in your area.
