You have just raised a good point, in statment you and your goat. Goats, sheep and horses are great grazers for uniformly eating pasture thus they kill a lot of weeds.

Then just get a levelling harrow and a shoulder strap grass seed seeder. Then you can trade your hogs for goats, sheep or horses. You guys may laugh, this advise is comming from a retired farmer who had 175 holsteins, 500 acres cultiveted and every machine in the ag books. It is a very cheap and effective fix on small acres. Don't forget the soil test and fertility.
