I'd spray roundup, wait 7 days, plant rye _if_ you can find a market for it, combine it with the straw chopper engaged next summer to make good staw. Plan on driving slow, there tends to be a _lot_ of straw. If it's worth a little less, you get a lot more....

Don't do the manure too heavy, makes small grains lodge if it gets too rich.
