Conscientous landowners can clean up woodlots with goats Goats are easier on trees, and will even eat, multiflora rose, honeysuckle vines and poison ivy . . . and can navigate terrain where cattle fear to tread - DR By Donna Rieder Conscientious landowners who want to clean up their woodlots without the damage that cattle can inflict, should consider goats. Due to their smaller size, they're easier on the trees, and they will eat the stuff cattle turn their noses up at, like multiflora rose, honeysuckle vines and poison ivy. They can also easily navigate terrain where cattle fear to tread, like rocky cliffs and ravines. Just adding two strands of electric wire inside an existing barbed-wire fence, will contain most goats. Likewise, co-grazing goats with cattle will show an increase in pasture grasses and a decrease in noxious weeds, as goats actually prefer to eat the weeds and brush that cattle won't touch. - Donna Rieder This story was posted on 2014-02-07 13:39:56
