[QUOTE="eric, post: 32751, member: 7"] I plan on doing a pasture thats about 10 acres. This pasture as far as I know has never been treated for weeds, as I just let the old man across the street fertilize it whenever he fertilized his pastures. Now that I am running cows on it I would like to increase the nutrient value and maybe even one day get it up to hay quality, and let him bale it for me. I have a smaller pasture about 5 acres that I take care of with my pull behind sprayer and my 4 wheeler, it has more trees and the smaller sprayer seems to work good on it. I can buy the 2,4-D w/o a applicaters liscense in the qt size bottles. The cost of the AMBER is $11.20 per ounce. I am gonna need about 5 ounces. The sprayer they have is a 30 ft boom and a 300 gallon tank. Should I just put a couple hundred gallons of water in the tank, add the chemical, then add the other 100 gallons, and then spread until the tank goes empty? How long should 10 acres take? The seed store was talking like I could pick up the sprayer at 7:30 am Sat morning and have it back by 12 or 1 pm! Should it go that quickly? Counting drive time, that gives me about 3 1/2 hrs to spray the whole pasture. [/QUOTE]
