Yellow bristle grass (YBG) is a summer-active grass weed which is rapidly spreading in dairy pastures in the North Island. Different grazing attractants were applied to Waikato dairy pastures at the end of January and February. Cows responded to attractants containing molasses (foliar applied or pellets), but not to coarse agricultural salt or sugar. There was less pasture dry matter, less YBG cover and more bare ground in the pellets treatment. There was also less pasture dry matter, more bare ground and fewer YBG tillers with seedheads in the foliar applied molasses treatment. By April, ryegrass and other species had filled bare areas and YBG cover was least in the pellets treatment. These preliminary results suggest that pellets may provide a cost-effective and easy to apply tool which can reduce seed-producing YBG plants. Care needs to be taken that YBG seeds are not spread via dung into clean paddocks and further measurements will be required to validate its long-term effectiveness.
