Stuck at DIY livery yard for the moment. Not all honey, but not that bad either, so will refrain from moaning too much. I have erected 5 semi permanent paddocks within my allocated field, (I'm lucky enough not to share a field), for my 2 horses. While 3 of the paddocks are not too bad the other 2 are just FULL of thistle, dock and weeds and at this time of year are pretty c**p. Whilst my yard owners are lovely people they will only roll and harrow the field if pleaded with! Nothing else will be done to maintain good grazing. I am desperate for these 3 paddocks to be treated but unfortunately my words will fall on deaf ears. The paddocks are quite large and I would never manage to hand pull / deal with the weeds manually. Any suggestions please? Moving yards? Buying a tractor and spayer? Lol !
