    Magpie,I believe he keeps the land in pasture for 4 years before going back to a crop.I haven't seen him in a while so I don't know exactly what he's up to these days.As for the phosphate issue I cannot answer that.

    One thing he said was when he went back to crop after pasture the results were "phenominal".He got a good laugh out of the neighbors for calling him crazy when he was seeding down the highest assessed quarter in his whole RM to grass.Last I heard he was also contemplating building portable feedlots and feeding cattle out on his fields,rotating from field to field each year.Quite an interesting fellow to say the least.

      We have pasture and hay in our crop rotation as well. It works well but some people don't want or don't like the extra work that comes with haying or livestock. Gets in the way of extra curricular activities or the job they need to keep the farm going.
