I have this sandy peice, needs lime, virtually no organic matter, yada yada yada. Well, as soon as this summers rye crop is harvested I want to get at the soil building business on that peice. Lime will be delivered, and spread as soon as straw is baled, have enough beef cow manure to spread 15 tons/ acre, was gonna disc chisel, then disc to break up the soil hardness and incorperate the manure and lime, I want to plant a cover crop, green manure etc, and was thinking about hairy vetch, some one said it creates massive root systems quickly and really put nitrogen in the soil. Is this something that I could plant in early august and still see some help to the soil? Would I be better off planting soybeans, oats, or maybe even rye again over the hairy vetch? Ears are open so please share your knowledge. OH, next years crop will be corn, and I plan on spreading (in spring)4 tons/ acre poultry breeder manure, then disking in cover crop and chicken manure, plant, spray. Feild has been mis managed for 60 years and I want to see what I can accomplish.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
