Spraying Pastures with Pasturegard HL Using Boomless Sprayer | Fighting Sericea Lespedeza Invasion

In this video, we’re out in the field spraying our pastures to combat sericea lespedeza, a highly invasive, fast-spreading weed that threatens forage quality and native ecosystems across much of the Midwest. This stuff takes over quickly—and getting rid of it is no easy task. We're using our Allis Chalmers 8030 paired with an Ag Spray Equipment 225-gallon boomless sprayer to apply Pasturegard HL, a powerful herbicide mix of triclopyr and fluroxypyr that’s specifically effective against deep-rooted perennial invasives like sericea lespedeza. You'll get a full look at our spray setup, technique, and conditions for best results. Whether you're battling this weed on your ranch, farm, or conservation land, this video shows how we’re working to restore balance in our pastures. ✅ Tractor: Allis Chalmers 8030 ✅ Sprayer: Ag Spray 225-Gallon Boomless Sprayer ✅ Herbicide: Pasturegard HL ✅ Target: Sericea Lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata) ✅ Timing: Active growth phase in summer ✅ Goal: Improved pasture health & productivity If you’ve fought this invasive species on your land, let us know what’s worked for you in the comments! 🔔 Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit the bell for more how-to videos on sprayer calibration, farm equipment, and application techniques! 📬 Got questions?
