Spray question - broadleaf weeds #869578
Asked May 22, 2024, 9:33 AM EDT
I have a small pasture with chickens and goats in it. I’d like to spray it for broadleaf weeds. I know there are some sprays that are grazable (Grazon maybe?) but we use the manure in our garden and flowerbeds. I’m concerned that we don’t kill good plants and vegetables with “digested residues” captured in the manure. Is there a spray that would break down eventually and allow us to use the manure?

Hi,
There are a number of options you could use. Table 4F of the forage section of the MSU weed control guide goes over the various restrictions and considerations.
Thank you,
