sprayers that are reasonably affordable...cover maybe 20 ft in a pass..most do 10 or 12...for under 1000 investment...it would take 2 passes of a 50 gal tank and have to refill. ive researched it..even got a sprayer for tsc..but returned it when i realize the application rates would empty the 40 gal tank in 2 passes..herd is 5 animals smaller than it was...i have an 8 ac pasture cows have been off of since i started feeding hay in nov and you can barely see the diff in growth vs where the cows have been all yr. most pastures around here look like mine except the blackroot part..but they have dog fennels ad broomsedge and thistles i dont have since i spot spray or mow.
blackroot can only be controlled by psraying..and i have acres of it,,,,it has value medicinally..but i haven't been able to locate anyone wants it..even thru craigslist or fb marketplace....
calfs wont be ready to ship til july or aug.....id probly get the same money whether i did it now or later...but it seems wrong to do it when theyre 2 mos vs 7-8 when i try to sell em.
i just did score this weekend 25 tons of out of grade citurs products..free score...so thats gonna help it all free choice right now...they were gonna dump it so i got the call...thank fully. its a little high moisture so out of spec to sell but perfectly fne to feed...
