    1. Prepare the soil
    Loosen topsoil (2–5 cm), remove weeds, and choose a sunny, well-drained area.

    2. Sow evenly
    Spread seeds evenly by hand across the area.

    3. Lightly cover
    Rake in gently to ensure good soil contact. Do not bury too deep.

    4. Water regularly
    Keep soil moist during germination until established.

    5. Allow growth before grazing
    Let grass reach 10–15 cm before allowing chickens access.

    Tip:
    Sow every 2–3 weeks for a continuous supply of fresh greens.
