HAY MULCH SEEDING Seed and mulch, hay mulch seeding or conventional seeding are all different names for the same process. Various blends of seed are incorporated into the soil. Fertilizer is then applied followed by the distribution of hay. The hay is then "crimped" into the soil making rows or hay fences. The hay assists in erosion control from both rain and wind. Hay Mulch Seeding is best suited for large open areas. Slopes greater than 3:1 do not lend themselves to Hay Mulch Seeding because tractors typically do more damage to the slope than desirable. HYDROSEEDING is an excellent method of application in these conditions. Florida Carter utilizes a wide range of tractors and implements in our conventional seeding operation including a high capacity round bale blower powered by a 165 HP tractor capable of distributing 4 tons of hay mulch per hour. |
