Pasture Cropping approach to Direct Seeding




21/10/2010
Rob Heal of Euroa is an innovative farmer , also willing to try new stuff !
Pasture cropping and biological farming are his interests.
Site 1 was revegetating along a drainage line .
Site 2 was revegetatiing along an unused lane.
Durringile Prisoners had done the fencing .
Susan Sleigh DPI Grant & Grey Crown Babbler Project .
The method he suggested was slashing away the pasture grass and sowing into the mown strip .
The soil was moist and conditions perfect , as we set off following his tractor.
It will be interesting to see how the Rob Heal Method works .
