You may see this w**d popping up everywhere at the moment, but do you know what it is? 🎋

‼️ Rawort is a very common, but highly poisonous plant that causes damage to horses’ livers when ingested. The recent rain and sun has meant it is shooting up all over the place and, as a horse owner, it's your responsibility to ensure it is removed from your horses' fields.

❌ The easiest way to remove ragwort is to invest in a specially designed ragwort fork to make sure you remove the root as well as the visible plant. Doing this regularly before it flowers is the best way to keep on top of it.

⁉️ Once you’ve pulled it out, it’s important to dispose of it as soon as possible, as the ragwort can seed even after you’ve removed it from the ground.

Unfortunately, it's that time of year.. ragwort season! ⚠️

Ragwort is a poisonous plant which is potentially dangerous in horse fields, as when grazing is scarce, horses may be tempted to eat it. If ingested, ragwort can cause severe liver damage so it's best to remove it from fields.

Ragwort spreads easily and is best removed when it is in its early rosette stage to prevent a fully flowering plant from developing and spreading further seeds. The easiest way to remove a small number of plants is by pulling the whole plant up from the roots using a specialised ragwort fork. This can be a labour intensive process, but it is well worth the effort!

❗️ Please remember that ragwort can also be harmful to humans, so make sure to wear protective gloves and cover any skin that may come into contact with it! Find out more about ragwort here 👉 https://bit.ly/3xa5h1t
