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.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
