I need to get rid of locoweed on my 45 acres. #877567

Asked July 17, 2024, 1:45 AM EDT

Hello! My partner and I bought 45 acres in Rifle in Dec, and have 8 horses. We have a ton of locoweed. I am looking for support to get rid of it without using poison.

Unfortunately hand digging seems to me the only way to get rid of locoweed besides herbicides.  See the link below.  One of the plants in this publication is locoweed and it mentions hand digging or herbicide treatment.

Thank you,

Doug
