Spread and Grade Topsoil with Compact Tractor
At 8:22 in
This time mother nature did it!!
What happens here
With the topsoil dumped, the smaller red TYM TX25 tractor ('Little T'), equipped with a front-end loader and a backhoe attachment, is driven to the mound of new soil. The operator utilizes the front-end loader to methodically spread and grade the topsoil across the eroded areas. This involves pushing the soil to fill in deep ruts and smoothing out the terrain to create a uniform, healthy surface. The narrator emphasizes the goal of addressing the 'land cancer' by covering the acidic red dirt with the rich new topsoil. This process prepares the ground for future planting of grass seed and application of straw, which will be aided by upcoming rain.
Goal: Evenly distribute and level the topsoil over eroded areas
