A few hundred acres of my ground have these. More than a little annoying, and I haven't been able to keep up with them. I mow hay where I can, but they do come right back since a mower doesn't cut low enough. Countless 1000s of them around. Any I've cut off by hand don't come back, just as long as it's below the lowest branch they will die. They make good shelter belts in the right places. Between them and the 1000s of old cottonwoods, I'm about ready to remove the majority of trees on my land....
The neighbor has sprayed some in fence lines, maybe 7' tall or so and spraying from one side, they die right off. Don't know what he uses, but it would be something mentioned. I cleared probably 60 acres by hand a few years ago, they were too big for a lopper, used a chainsaw and axe, made a few big piles. I am going to do some more of that if I can get time, plus I'm probably buying a tractor loader shear (lots of people around here have them). ATV shears work with the right conditions, but I don't know many people that like them that much, and they are hard on the atv if not careful.
I don't know if a weed wiper would coat them good enough. I was thinking about that for the little ones, before grass comes up it would be easy. Much less waste than a boom sprayer for larger areas.
I used to have a school section, they said they had pellets to drop next to trees to kill them, said they worked well. I'm guessing they'd be like in this article.

Many owners of tractors travel long distances to attend these shows and they usually take their restored iron along with them. Safe trailering practices and inspections will ensure that the event is a fun one. A good habit to develop when using a trailer is to give that �quick look over� before taking it on a trip.
