thats almost an acre.. if you can rent a stiner with a tiller, they work great for situations like yours, (i know someone in the area that would do it for a little charge)PM me..

But i would burn is with about 3 quarts of a 40% glysophate and some 24D mix (1quart) let it be for about 1.5 weeks, till apply the lime, till it, lwt is stand for about a week and spot treat the weeds that will regenerate, then seed it, cultipack or roll the seed into the soil about 1/4'' <that is a big deal the seed to soil contact! apply you fert. and wait. for an area that large I also recommend a soil sample.. or apply 1000 lbs or lime now and another 1000 in the fall. as for seed I am very partial to Tecomate seed (Monster Mix, clover and chicory mix) they use only #1 grade seed. and it is all pretreated. I hope this will help.... some

not trying to contradict any one but if you no-till you need to use alot more seed than normal if not soil is tilled, and if you no-till it you should do it in Jan-Feb when the soil is thawing and freezing alowing the seed to get into the soil. It is worth the effort getting the soil preped in the right way first.. please do your self a huge favor and don't cut any corners even in your situation.
