Idle Acreage No Longer Recommended
University of Illinois agronomy expert J. C. Hackleman says worn-out pasture land should not be rested and put into long rotation. He notes that nitrogen and minerals are depleted similarly to other crops and erosion increases as pastures age. Five steps including soil testing, mineral fertilization, proper seedbed prep, reseeding with legumes and grasses, and controlled grazing can revive pasture productivity in one or two years.
