[QUOTE="OBAX, post: 1685735, member: 24445"] I’ve never owned a cow that would eat a goat weed or a bull nettle, or a hundred other weeds that take over a pasture. If I negatively affect the soil biology I will gladly add lime or organic matter to feed the soil, but the weeds are sucking all the nutrients and moisture from my dirt that I need for my Bermuda grass. I also welcome rye grass, Bahiagrass, vetch, clover, crab grass, etc, etc….. as long as my cows will eat it. As far as insects, I only use pesticides on them, namely sevin or Lambda. I did not take on the “pollinators” to raise, I took on cattle. I spray weeds and insects that impede my ability to feed my cattle as efficiently as possible. I never claim to be organic, or herbicide free, or any of the other names that are flying around these days, but I do claim that I will do my best to squash anything that takes away from my bottom line, and weeds and insects and worms are high on that list.
