[QUOTE="mdt192, post: 1428837, member: 28762"] Hello all, I have been reading the board for awhile and have enjoyed it very much. I am closing on a 135 acre addition to our family beef farm this Friday. It's probably about 100 acres of pasture that has not been taken care of at all. Undergrazed, not clipped. Some parts probably haven't seen a person (much less a bush hog) in 5-10 years. Woody plants (cedar, osage orange, black locust) and various broadleaf weeds popping up everywhere. It's not completely fenced in, but that should be accomplished around the end of the year. What should be my first course of action in regards to the state of the pasture? I have little experience in dealing with this level of a mess. On our current land, we bush hog once a year in the late summer / early fall and spray a light coating of 2,4 D in the spring, and it seems to keep the place in pretty good shape. Thanks in advance.
