[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 669776, member: 7509"] Is it my imagination or are there more thistles than usual in pastures this year? I was running the mower over a pasture yesterday afternoon after rotating the cattle out and was surprised to find more thistle than usual in it. Is there something about the weather this year which is increasing the thistle population? The 5 drops of kerosene method looks like it would be a full time job for a lot of people. Hopefully the clipping before going to seed will help. I've seen cattle in a rotational grazing system aggressively eating thistle plants when the plants are small. Jim [/QUOTE]
