[QUOTE="1wlimo, post: 838879, member: 16646"] Buttercups are an opertunistic weed. They are as you know like Dandilion very invasive. There for could be an indicator of over grazing. Control methods seam to be limited if you do not want to use a chemical. 1, can you cut hay (non toxic in dry form) before seed is viable 2, no grazing, then close mowing before seed is viable 3, cultivation, with a crop for a year or two before returning to pasture. I would check my soil ph, and compaction etc. You need to give the grass the upper hand, and ensure that the soil is in as good a shape as it can be. Most species like good moist fertile soil, so that is the good news. [/QUOTE]
