Clearing Ragwort before cutting hay.

 Hi everyone I have just spoken to the Hay cutter who intends cutting the hay at our field on Monday week following the forecasted dry spell. There is some Ragwort growing in the hay that needs pulling up as its poisonous to live stock . To make it easier to cut the hay can anyone who is free on Wednesday come along to pull some out from midday onward ? It shouldn't take long and half a dozen of us could probably doit in 20 min or so . If we cant finish then it will have to be done on Sunday morning before any flying .

If you can come along please bring a spike or a fork to loosen soil around roots so as to totally remove the plant and we can then dispose of it safely later.

Regards

Phil
