    Safety around bulls

    Hey all!

    My family and I have a small cow-calf beef herd in Ontario, and for the first time we have more than one bull on site – we have three. And over the weekend I had a close call with one of our yearling bulls, and even though I thought that I was prepared/alert, it was a little too close for my liking.

    Do any of you have words of wisdom/or tips and tricks on how to handle bulls?

          I have a neighbour asking for just shy of a mill from DuPont. They claim a poor sprayer clean out. Smoked 3000 acres of canola and 500 acres of peas. All from a little white residue that won't clean out.

                  Is there a good reason to use express, heat, prepass..... other than chemical company marketing? why not just use a higher rate of glyphosate?

                    Different modes of action, to help delay roundup resistance.
