1. In a letter to Vet Record, Aug 7, West Midlands vet Steve Borsberry warns of the dangers of feeding grass silage contaminated with ragwort. They are about 10-15mm high. 2. it flowers in the second year. Yes, ragwort in hay remains a problem, as when it dries it no longer tastes as bitter so horses are more inclined to ingest it along with the rest of the hay. This means that ragwort found in hay or haylage, or leaves that have fallen off a plant in the field and died, can very easily be eaten unknowingly and will be just as harmful as a living plant. Re: Ragwort in hay Ragwort is a biennial, i.e. RAGWORT can kill cattle, not just horses, and is at its most dangerous in silage and hay. Ragwort in silage can kill…. The only real solution is spraying at the floret stage in spring and autumn with something like Headland Polo. Cutting and pulling will prevent it from seeding but it will regrow from the roots or cut stems the following year. Rips, when its alive ragwort tastes nasty so the horses won't eat it, when it dies (the horse can chop it down with a shod foot, or people cut it and leave it, or its cut as part of a hay crop ) it starts to turn sweet and lose its nasty taste and thats when they will eat it. Ragwort seedlings start to appear in autumn. Ragwort rosettes can be found from early spring onwards 3. Either source your hay elsewhere, move, or check your hay very carefully indeed before feeding it and remove any ragwort you find.
