When I see the total lack of appreciation for trees and what they do for ones land. I wonder why you don't work in a rock Quarry. You're better suited for that

There's a difference between forest management and forest destruction. This is very clearly just management. Hes keeping it from encroaching on his fields and keeping it back from his fence. If you don't manage it, it becomes more and more of a problem.

The truth of this system is that when clearing brush for more pasture area at the same time you are improving the quality of the land without using chemicals. Stoney Ridge Farm is a business and in the business you are producing cattle so the more pasture that you have will produce end product and helps to pay the State and Federal taxes. Our country requires tax payers to cover the wants of big government. I enjoy your videos especially the care that you take with maintenance of the property 👍🏼💝...
That's what you needed when you were clearing your pastures to put that organic material back into the soil instead of burning it up. Have a great day 😊.

This method doesn’t get rid of the trees, just cuts them down to the ground. They’ll be back in 2-3 years, clearing and burning rips the roots out
He was smart enough to figure that a place called 'Stoney Ridge Farm' might be a bit rocky. Good for him. Good looking machine. Hello to Mrs. Stoney Ridge. All the best Josh. WHOO!
I love it when the edges of the field look neat and tidy! Mother nature just tries to keep poking out and you have to stay away further and further. That machine makes quick work of it!
Wow what a beautiful tool. It's going to be beautiful.
Hey Josh! That was an IMPRESSIVE piece of equipment! WOW!
That is one beast of a machine. Could use that on my place to clear out the underbrush below my trees.
I could use one of these for a day or two. What a machine.
What a beast.Made it look so easy.Awesome content as always.Great variety.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

We had some forestry mulching done a year ago and absolutely love the results. We will probably have them come back every 2-3 years to touch up and make further improvements.

Great video Josh. Cool to see all the improvements on the land.
Good morning Josh hope you have a wonderful day mulching please be careful
Gotta get me one of them cutter heads for my 853 Bobcat! It sure does the job!
Interesting! It appears a little undersized for some of the trees but still workable. It certainly does a nice job. Glad to see no spikes are left behind.
I love your approach to this. You will look back in a few years with a lot of pride.
Looks great. Cleaned up nice.

You are absolutely right that those machines are dangerous to be around. Great footage by drone! We rented one on our farm (wish I got video). It was an absolute monster and cruised through the brush and small trees. Ended up breaking a tooth on a rock though…. Carbide teeth were needed !
This is the best way to clear properly it puts mulch down and it composts into top soil .your not digging up the ground it's just a lot better way . I've had several properties mulched it's awesome and labor saving 👍

I have seen this forestry mulcher in another video and he has several of them. One of his is attached to a small excavator. He goes to town on a job. He is based out of South Caroliner.

I’ve been waiting a couple years for you to get one of these. 😂 as soon as I saw the thumbnail I thought holy shit, he finally got one.”
Definitely hope that doors a forestry door. I was puckered up watching him cut that tree, 12 minute mark, and dropping the mulcher below the tree. That's a lot of tree aimed directly for his lap if it happened to kick back on him. Super nice job, and definitely not being a Safety Nancy about it.. just whheewww over that. 😂

Fantastic channel man. I have watched most of your videos. Truly love your work and I am not having a stir. Myself being from Australia and I am of very similar farm techniques I am interested to why you say your farming is regenerative farming. I am just starting to learn about this type of farming and in Australia the farming you and I are carrying out is not regenerative. Sorry if this causes problems and please delete if it does. I can attach some Aussie vids if that helps.
I've thought about renting one for a couple days I've got alot of down trees and small bad trees id like to clean it up
More local companies to you do this type of work.

Be careful using the push bar to drag items with. The bucket cylinders are not rated for the return weight of the mulching head. Also, because the bucket cylinders are fully extended they will bend. I’m sure you know, but a kindly reminder.
Well about time your back on the farm you been having tomuch time out away from them cows and coffee now gald your back
How long does is take to get grass/feed to grow after mulching
I've seen other equipment do a little better and quicker on that kind of work. Some of those trees were wasted and would have made nice firewood, Josh.

Well, you are losing edge habitat for wildlife, so my first thought is if it's worth it for the fairly minimal pasture range gain? What was the total acreage gained? Not seeing the value vs the effort. I'm a Forester by the way.
@StoneyRidgeFarmer
4 ай бұрын
We have some managed forest areas......edges for habitat abound here on the farm....but we're constructing a fence through these areas...fencing in about 25 acres of pasture so we've gotta open up some of the brush. As a forester, you well know that forest will take a pasture back in a couple years if not well maintained....and in our bottom land we're over run with invasive privet bushes

all for having trees but they have to complement the land and work for the farmer and there cattle running a trial on a few shrub and tree species not only for shade but a winter feed also not sure how it will go but from what i can see when the cows eat them they are not disappointed finding other feed sources i think of it i wouldn't want to eat lettuces all day every day for my hole life why would a cow ? introducing a trees or fodder would be a good thing to see on the farm love what you have done with the place.

Is it me or is does that multcher seem pretty sub-par. I've been looking at several mulchers and watched dozens of videos and they seem to devour 6, 8, 10" trees like nothing. That machine is 92HP with high flow hydro - why is it not chewing through that faster? Is he maybe being a little easy on his new (very expensive) piece of equiptment?

The other cpmmone issue is many times the videos are sped up to fit the footage into the video so It becomes somewhat unrealistic for what's actually happening. Hardwood trees can take some work. Running knives helps and keeping them nice and sharp.

I had this done to our land and cleared 10 acres. I would never do it again. Not taking out the trunk/roots does nothing more than a temporary fix. We have several trees growing back. The land is almost not usable for anything you plan on growing as everything underground is still there. You are better off getting a machine to push the trees over, taking the whole thing out. The price is about the same.
