Clearing out swamp land on the farm during a wet rainy week

What happens here

Before any heavy machinery can be operated, the existing fence panels obstructing the barnyard access must be removed. These metal gate-style panels are modular, allowing them to be unhooked and carried away. Although not deeply footed, they are firmly embedded due to years of cow traffic pressing against them and overgrown weeds consolidating the ground around their bases. Two people are required to lift and maneuver the heavy panels to clear the path for the loader.

Goal: Remove temporary fencing to allow machinery access

allergies get get get the first thing we got to do before any work can begin is get rid of those fence panels they are sectional meaning that they will come apart in pieces and they don't actually have footings but they might as well have footings because with the cows brushing up against them and the weeds growing over them they're almost impossible to get out they're really stuck but after we get those out then we can really start operating the equipment and getting some barnyard cleaned up question for you guys you guys got itch weed right there we call it itch weed it's not poison ivy I don't know what the real name of it is it grows like weeds everywhere in Minnesota and I just got it all over my legs so after we've got a couple section of those fence panels gone we can actually get down into the lower barnyard and start grading it out and removing the weeds so that we can get at the rest of the sections of the fence panel a little bit easier now we do have an ultimate goal with this thing and that's just to turn this barnyard back into usable space it's just been neglected for far too long but this is going to be a much bigger job than what I initially thought
