I am getting ready to doze about 50 acres to add more pasture land. After its clear I intend to seed with fescue. I have seen many pastures dozed that start getting all kinds of oak seedlings sprouting up. My question is what herbicide would be the right choice to spray to kill these while allowing me to maintain my pasture? Also, how soon can cows graze after application without harming them? Thanks
 
Number one, make sure to allow your grass to get fairly well established before spraying anything.

Number Two, we spray Crossbow, Grazon and Round Up with cattle in the field. Crossbow works good and works now and that's it. Grazon P+D has a residual effect pt's per acre equal number of months protection against future weed seedling. Grazon requires a license to buy, or usually you can have it applied by a coop for less than you can buy the spray.
