[QUOTE="Flying O, post: 953567, member: 19357"] Just getting back into farming after 20+years, and just to make it complicated, in a completely different part of the country. Used to be in WA Now in TX. Went ahead and leased a 100+ Acre pasture and bought some bred cows. Now the work begins, the pasture is pretty deep in broomweed. Looks like there could be some decent grass under it if it could get a shot. To many mesquites to boom truck it and really going to be a pain even boomless spraying on a 4 wheeler, not impossible but going to take a while. From what I've read the cows aren't going to be clearing the broomweed very well. Any advice is begged for. I'm only going to put 6 head on it for the winter and really work to clear out trees during the winter and if all goes as planned spray like a hollywood spit take in the spring. Am I thinking right ? Is 6 on 130 acres about right on TX native with heavy broomweed? [/QUOTE]
