AWESOME! Time Lapse Clearing an old Abandoned Field on the farm!
What happens here
With the land clearing complete for this section, the drone footage reveals a vast, open area of new pasture land, significantly expanded from its previously overgrown state. Large slash piles, meticulously arranged by the dozer, are visible, ready for the next phase. The presenter explains that approximately 1.5 acres have been successfully cleared. The future plan involves converting these slash piles into biochar through controlled burning, which will then be spread across the land to enrich the soil. Following this, grass seed will be planted to establish a healthy pasture. Ultimately, this newly revitalized land will be fenced and used for grazing the farm's cattle, significantly increasing the farm's productive capacity.
Goal: Finalize land clearing, prepare for fertilization, and establish new pasture
