[QUOTE="Andrew, post: 250568, member: 918"] Hello, I have a situation I need help with. I have a pasture in which 100ac of it is completely filled with dried up sunflowers. I just bought this place and its 166 ac. The 66ac has a very good stand of native grass and that's where I moved my cows to. The other 100 ac were used for hay but the guy that used to do it, didn't do it this year and the place just got overgrown with the sun flowers. The 100 ac were polwed every year and fertilized. It had a good stand of Johnson but the sunflowers overtook it. My question is: What inexpensive means do I realistically have to produce a winter graze for my cws. I only have 15 now but would like to get up to 30~50 (I have another 80ac in warm season grasses and bermuda). I presented the question to one of my neighbors and he said it would take at least $9K to put anything on the 100ac. That seems a little hight given that I already spend plenty buying the place. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks, Andrew [/QUOTE]
