[QUOTE="Kiwi Pete, post: 7621176, member: 63856"] It tolerates low pH, more a sign of low grazing pressure, which lets it away ahead of anything tasty. It accumulates aluminium, which gives the impression that "lime sees it off" - really the carbonate gives the H+ and Al³+ something to cling to, so it doesn't taste as fugly (same as creeping bent etc) The cheapest way to reduce the chances of it overtaking more desirable grasses is to use enough pressure that the stock will deck the area given in a couple of days - as opposed to parking them in the whole field until they moan to get out - because in that situation they'll overgraze most things and still undergraze the YF, which puts it ahead every grazing and creates a compounding situation Nonselective grazing has pretty much eradicated it from our ranch in the space of a couple of years.
