Bill,
Does the horsenettle remain a problem in managed grazing systems?

Very much so. We have rotationally grazed for 4 plus years, and the
horsenettle just gets worse. The most effective method of control we have
found,with all the clover we have, is to spot spray with Grazon P+D , but
this is tedious when you have a lot of acreage to cover. The more we bush
hog it, the more it spreads out laterally.
