I located some research done here in Oklahoma with vinegar used as a herbicide. It looks promising for fenceline control of weeds and also for broadleaf control. However, if I can keep the fenceline from being shorted with the weeds, the sheep will control most of the broadleaf. I have had some problems with a blue flowering weed which later forms a yellow ball seed about 1/2 inch in diameter. The sheep will not eat it, and when I mow it, I have to make 2 to 3 passes with the mower because it is so tough!!!!
