What type of pasture weed is this? I have it popping up all over my cattle pastures and it seems P+D doesn't kill it very well. Thanks for he help.

Kinda looks like milkweed from the picture, but I would think that P+d would kill it.
Experts often recommend planting milkweed to help the declining monarch population because it is the sole food source for the monarch caterpillars. These insects breed as they migrate north in the spring, cycling through four generations during the journey. Each of those generations is entirely dependent on milkweed as the host plant for the caterpillars. While the decline in the milkweed population is only one of several factors affecting monarch populations, planting more of it will likely give the monarch population a boost.

Appears to be croton capitatus (goat weed), (woolly croton) easiest thing in fields to kill 2-4D kills hell out of it, check your % usage of your sprayer, as generally a drop on this plant will do, about an hour after we spray they get droopy like you showed.
