Graham what type of seed are you pelletizing. I use pelleted salanova seed for my customers but I have to buy it from Johnny's.

Sorry I missed this. I used a combo of winter rye, fall oats, Austrian winter pea, clover, daikon tillage radish and alfalfa

Must these be broadcast by hand? I have about 15 acres in cover crops and would like to be able to use a faster method than walking all area. I try to use minimal equipment, but I have a mid sized tractor/loader. Previously I used an1960’s? no till grassland drill. It sadly met its demise after fall planting. It’s just me working it, so no extra hands to help

Sorry for the late reply , you can use any seed spreader, and if they are pèlerines then the birds and ants won’t eat them. There are seed spreaders that attach to a tractor or a arc etc
