I keep my horses at home but we have quite a bit of creeping buttercup in the field. The horses won't eat it but I'd like to be rid of it all the same - can anyone recommend a good weedkiller or a good company that can spray it for me? We're based in Cambridge. Thank you!
 
I don't think Grazon 90 does buttercup - it is for Broad leaf - ie Doc, thistle and nettle. i think it is something like MCPA that farmers use which does everything, Nettles, docks, thistles, buttercup and plantain. But ask at countrywide/ Moleavon or some agricultural store and they will let you know. Also there should be a local contractor who an spray it for you. I have two I can use - on uses an arm sprayer of a quad and the other uses a huge sprayer on a tractor - takes him less than an hour to do my 35 acres. And its really cheap
 
i read it today !! IT DOES DO BUTTERCUPS aswell !!

my farmer uses it for our paddocks and it does all docks ect and buttercups and you can put it in a spayer and do it yourself
30 quidfor a bottle does like 25 acers plus
 
Grazon is not particularly effective for buttercups, however, the company that makes it has now bought out a new one called Forefront which they say is very effective. It also does other broadleef plants such as docks etc. I have it on order and will be trying it soom...
 
Is Grazon 90 available to Joe Public or only to Licenced folk? need to do ours this year.
