Any idea what's invading my sheep grazing pasture? What would kill it?

Yarrow?

Yarrow is a herb which was once used in seed mixtures and is very rich in minerals. It's also very drought tolerant, the dry conditions the last two years might have encouraged it to grow.

I'd say yarrow, too. I expect a dose of 2,4D or the mixture of phenoxies like polo or thrust would sort it out. It's a grazed herb from memory that isn't really that problematic.

Why do you want to kill it when those in the know are planting it?

 

[NConnell]

Had no idea, just thought it was a weed as it seemed to increasing. Might as well keep it then if it's good for grazing after all! Thanks for the advice guys.

Yarrow, been putting it in with my mix for a while now.
The more weeds the better, straight rye grass and white clover is "so last year"!
