I'll be asking around to see if anyone is up to doing that plowing job. Appreciate the insights.

The field lays pretty flat and I know has some little bluestem growing in it. Kind of curious what burning it in late April would do for making it healthier and perhaps taller. Asking the local soil conservation office for more info on that approach.

Kingston, Not a farmer but thinking I'd have to burn down that existing grass with glyphosate prior to no till drilling the rye. Was thinking maybe just turning it under and then planting may yield better results. Need to kill some yuccas as well prior to any of this.
