[RC] Best pasture grass? Susan G??? - Kristi Schaaf

My distance horses will be getting new pasture planted
this spring. I live in Iowa and am wondering what mix
of pasture grass types I should use. I've been surfing
the net and it's so much more complicated than I
thought - life spans and seeding methods and soil ph,
etc etc. I don't know if the advertised mixes for this
area are what I want. Labels brag about "high sugar"
and legume volume, and I don't 'think' I want either
of those(?) I just want palatable hardy grasses, or if
I do add a clover for the nitrogen value, should I use
white or red? Susan G are you out there???
