[QUOTE="Workinonit Farm, post: 838881, member: 839"] Well, I think it could be worth a try. I have a smallish pasture where I have done a similar deal with. Being diligent with the bush-hogging, grazing and dragging as well as strategic placement of hay (seeds will drop) and it has made a tremendous difference in reducing the amount of Broome-Sage, however I haven't seen a big difference in the amount of Buttercups. There are a [i]bit less[/i]but not as noticeable as with the Broome-Sage. I have also been able to control the [i]spread [/i]of Thistles the same way as well as reduce (by small amounts) the Thistles. I have found the best way to get rid of Thistles (and Burdock) is to pull them up by the roots and feed them to the hogs before they go to seed. As you stated above, well timed mowing/bush-hogging can be helpful in the control of many 'weeds'. Katherine [/QUOTE]
