[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 580375, member: 539"] Is the pasture irrigated? How much rain do you normally get in a year? If the pasture is irrigated(or you get a fairly high amount of rainfall), and the grass is a desirable type of grass, you might want to consider simply spraying something like 2-4D to kill the weeds regularly, apply a little fertilizer, and allow the grass to do it's thing. With less competition from the weeds the grass should take off and choke out the weeds pretty quickly. Generally speaking, anytime you kill off everything you're issuing an engraved invitation for the weeds (and possibly cheatgrass) to take over, sap all of the moisture, and prevent the grass from germinating - that is how it is in my area, maybe your area is different, though.
