[QUOTE="Alan, post: 401345, member: 378"] Well finally a cattle topic I feel I may have something worth contributing to. We bought this place about 7 yrs ago, it had Blackberries 10 to 12 feet tall and covered most the pastures, full of Bull thistle and Canadian Thistle and bracken fern. I bush hogged and started recapturing the pastures about 8 to 10 acres at a time. I ran the tractor through the blackberries with the bucket about a foot off the ground looking for stumps or cars or what ever, followed up with a bush hog. Gave it a couple of days and ran through it again to mulch it up. then it was up to me and a spot sprayer with either Cross Bow or Curtail in it. I pretty much sprayed with the spot sprayer as needed. It took about two years with ferilizer, in my case horse manure, to get a decent looking pasture with very few weeds or berries. We saved to patches of blackberries for ice cream or/and pie. ;-) Don't be afraid to spot spray the grass will come back. Alan [/QUOTE]
