Need to purchase a riding lawn mower, help me choose one please?

best riding lawn mower for 5 acres image

Q. Moving to 5 acre property, going to need more than the walk behind I now have. Which are dependable brands? Do I go with zero turn radius mowers? The zero turns really seem to fly, and cutting grass, while necessary, is not my idea of a great way to spend my off hours. Lawn service pros, and anyone else knowledgeable, I need your advice.

Thank you.

How do you make grass grow better in a poor horse pasture?

q.h.luvr

My two geldings are living in a 5-acre pasture all to themselves, and they have eaten most of the grass and there isn't much left for them. I can make it to the barn about every other day, but not quite every day, and I need to make sure they are being fed enough. They are both in good health now, but I don't want them to get too skinny.

Answer
first off I would cross fence the pasture to rotate pasture area for your horses while one side is growing the other side can be used to feed for next year since there is going to be a frost soon with in the next month about the middle of october not much grass is going to grow this year for the rest of this year. I would get a round bale feeder and round bales. if you have a riding lawn mower and can find 5 feet of old chain link fence and a wood pallet drag the chain link fence with the pallet on it over the pasture to break down all the horse patties to fertilize the pasture and give a better area for the grass to grow
