What is a chemical application that will kill Kudzu to the root/tuber, and still be able to plant the same ground?
I saw a special on "Kudzu" a few years back and GA Power had something they were using, but I do not recall the chemical. Maybe call them? I know it can have a taproot as deep as 16feet!!! That is the problem.

My brother n law says roundup with diesel fuel works.
My question there is, why waste the roundup, wouldn't just the diesel fuel work by itself??
But that still wouldn't allow me to replant afterwards..
I bow hunt in a 5 acre kudzu field. Early season while its green. I've tried for years to kill it to make my own food plots. I have found NOTHING that will kill that stuff. I'll be wathing this thread hope someone can tell us something, because i hate it!
My uncle(a bored individual) had it on his fenceline he managed to bushhog and hand remove it and it hasn't returned as far as I know.
Mind you this is a man that also hand dug the silt from his pond 4.5 acres with a wheelbarrow and a shovel 2-3 ft deep in places. He has plenty of "spare"time to work on projects such as this, for fear of having to spend a dollar.
P.S. Disclaimer
And David if you read this you know your dad will pinch a penny till Lincoln screams.
Obviously he didn't dig 16ft. deep to get the root, so that must be a myth.
I have used round up it kills it but it always comes back.

That is the results I get. But I would consider that a burn, not a kill.
What I want is a permenant solution.
I have heard that if it is grazed to the point of not allowing enough growth to get sufficient sunlight it will die within a couple of years.
I think the person who told me that used goats as the grazers.
transline will kill it
