Great....we have plenty of it in SC and NC so help yourself.

Thanks but no thanks. We have more than we can handle as it is. That's why I searched to see if it was good for anything. That's when I found out people are using the roots to bake goods. I was quite surprised.

Digging out the roots would be difficult with all the vines, except in winter maybe....we have poisonous snakes here, so I would not be blindly moving around kudzu leafs. And I would think a backhoe might damage a lot of the roots...I’m sure there is a way, but I’m not a farmer.

I wasn’t being a smart aleck, it’s just that an intended food for animals has become uncontrollable for some and people abandon places that get overgrown and it’s a real issue to clear the land.

Some use kudzu for salads too. Hopefully a solution for it’s roots use in masse can be established. I know certain trees were bought from lands years ago without buying the land, so maybe kudzu fields could be bought and the land returned to the owner to replant in normal grass or trees.
