Welcome to the Progressive Seeds blog! In this post, we’ll provide you with valuable insights on creating the ideal pasture for your horse. At Progressive Seeds, we specialize in high-quality seeds that can help you establish a lush and nutritious pasture to keep your horse happy and healthy.

Choosing the Right Seed

The first step in creating a great pasture is selecting the right seed for your horse’s needs. Different horse breeds and activities require specific types of grasses. Progressive Seeds offers a variety of pasture seed mixes tailored to meet the nutritional requirements of horses. Whether your horse is a performance athlete or a leisure companion, we have the perfect seed blend for you.

Soil Preparation

Preparing the soil is crucial for a successful pasture. Start by testing the pH level and fertility of the soil. Progressive Seeds can assist you with soil testing and analysis to determine any necessary amendments. Depending on the results, you may need to adjust the soil pH, add organic matter, or address nutrient deficiencies.

Seeding Techniques

Once your soil is ready, it’s time to seed your pasture. Progressive Seeds offers various seeding techniques, including broadcast seeding, drill seeding, and hydroseeding. The technique you choose depends on the size of your pasture, available equipment, and desired results. Our experts can guide you through the process and help you achieve optimal seed coverage and germination.

Maintenance and Grazing Management

After the seeds have germinated, proper maintenance and grazing management are essential. Progressive Seeds provides recommendations for pasture maintenance, such as mowing, fertilizing, and controlling weeds. We also offer advice on rotational grazing, which promotes healthy grazing patterns and prevents overgrazing.
