CLEARING MORE LAND! FOLLOWING THE FARM DREAM!

What happens here

The farmer provides an aerial perspective of the farm using drone footage. He shows a large 90-acre tract that is currently pasture, then zooms in on a previously cleared area, showing both 'before' and 'after' views. He points out the three distinct stripes created by the loader across the cleared terrain, explaining that these are designed to help control water washing and slow down runoff. He also highlights other areas: a 'deer sanctuary' planted with Loblolly pine trees (a long-term investment for retirement or future pasture), and a smaller bottom area where the track loader is actively pushing off stumps, transforming overgrown forest back into pastureland.

Goal: Showcase the farm's landscape and highlight cleared/developed areas

Tools and materials

  • Drone — Capturing aerial footage of the farm for planning and documentation
  • Loblolly Pine Trees — Reforestation and long-term timber/land value

What they say

Hide

Chad hauled the rock and Frank built the driveway for the house and cleared our first spot of land for the house so first step in this whole procedure is take him over and show him exactly what's got to be done basically we're just dressing up some areas that were cleared last fall about this time last year I guess pretty cool you guys will get a full aerial shot of this I'll take the drone over fly it over you'll get a before and after probably over this whole week we're gonna give you guys some drone footage imma talk it through and walk you through what we're doing before we go look and all these spots that were clearing off so let's take it to the air this is shooting right off the front porch in we're headed over to the other side of the farm this is the big side of the farm that you're seeing in front of you it's about a 90 acre tract and what we're doing is cruising over top here the tree line that you see right there is a major creek that we have running through the farm you can see the fresh mowing grass directly below us that was yesterday's video what we're doing is flying over here we're gonna give you a little bit of an after shot we're gonna flashback to a before shot here this is what it looked like before and he's working over there I'm mowing actually and then this is after so cleaned up really really nice you can see those three stripes that he drug across there that's to help control washing so in other words if you have the loader dragging down the hill or up the hill up and down it'll create troughs for the water to run so we want to slow the water down before it gets down in those bottoms we're gonna swing out to the right here we've got what I call the deer sanctuaries what we're flying over right now this left side that you see is a part of our property - that's all been planted back in pine trees that's a loblolly pine so that'll be part of our retirement in about 30 years we'll be able to harvest those trees or we may clear it to field also if the cattle operation proves to be successful what you're seeing here there were big brush piles down in these bottoms that's the biggest bottom and then up into the right I get a little bit lost on the drone right here but up and to the right we're right seta another substantial Creek we're basically flying right over top of it this is our smaller bottom area and Frank is actually over here working he's
