How do people control them? Flail / top / spray / sheep / goats / chemical / fire(!) / other?
How often do you have to repeat your control method?

But think of the Sloes...MCPA + 2,4D.
I would advice folk not to plant Blackthorn. It is just too invasive.
Any effective way of controlling them without using chemicals? I sell all my meat direct to the consumer and they nearly always want reassurance that I don’t use chemicals.
They don’t ask about that although I do try to avoid using it as much as possible. I’ve one small group of cows/ yearling calves that has had four small bales of hay all winter and that’s it for “tractor” time. Apart from that they’ve lived on unfertilised pasture all year roundI presume you won't use tractor diesel either!!!!
