Breaking New Ground For Farming! Cutting Down Trees and Knocking Down Brush!



Today we are bringing some land back into production. The field has slowly been getting smaller and smaller every year. Today we are going to combat that. We start by cutting down invasive trees and pushing them back into the woods. Lastly we break out the awesome RanchWorx Aerator to mulch up and breakdown the unwanted weeds and saplings. I also used it to chop up the corn stalks in that field along with aerating it at the same time. Thank you all for watching! Stay tuned to see how this ground turns out next year!

  1. I think you need to purchase that ranch work variator. Not only does it break up the stocks, but it puts grooves in the ground for moisture to soak in over the winter, and the deeper that moisture can go, the more moisture is going to be retained in the soil. Very impressive.

  2. Cleaning up Dad's place after he passed away, we seen how handy the grapple bucket is on a skid loader. Watching that aerator work on stalks is impressive. We have some ten foot long locomotive air tanks, I think I might build one of those

  3. "Edge creep" can really eat up acres. Trimming back and pushing the edges back can get "lost" acres back. You just HAD to use the Magnum, didn't you? 😂 Great video, and that aerator might be worth keeping around, it looks like a worthwhile investment. A bush hog or shredder just attacks the stalks, but that machine gets into the soil and blends in the residue. 👍👍

  4. That really opened up that field , a lot of ground you got back massive difference to the size , very impressed with what that machine did too really ripped up that brush , looks like the Tractor handled the Aerator well on the steep sides of the field too from what we can see , that's a lot of ground you got back into that field

  5. That skid steer is pretty handy. I wish my dad had one back in the day. We also cleared brush on rented ground. Dad had a wood stove add on furnace in the basement, so we took all the free wood we could get! We would have taken all the wood you had here , but Dad only had a small wood lot on his own farm. We used a grain truck and a step ladder on the fence rows for the high branches…if it was a dry fall! Have a good late fall and Winter season!

  6. I'd broadcast winter rye over that area or super early spring oats. Then in the spring you can use your no-till planter to put down corn and when the corn emerges, run this roller (without water) to flatten the rye/oats into weed barrier mulch while the corn pops back up and grows ahead of any weeds that try escaping. The rye/oats will be mid to late season fertilizer and protect water through the dry periods.
