What is Forestry Mulching And Do We Need It?

Forestry mulching is a method of clearing land using a single machine with a rotary drum (mulching head) equipped with steel chipper teeth to cut, grind, and shred vegetation. The process leaves behind a fine layer of mulch that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. This method is perfect for clearing trees and brush that are too large for a tractor with a brush hog. 

Benefits of Forestry Mulching

Forestry mulching is better for the environment as the biomass provides erosion protection that helps retain moisture and put nutrients back into the soil. A forestry mulcher can work in densely forested areas that cannot accommodate larger machinery as well as operate in inclement weather and on softer surfaces. It is a more cost-effective option than bulldozing which adds the additional expense of filling holes, leveling the ground, burning brush piles, or paying to have the waste hauled away. The areas mulched can be immediately re-seeded or planted.

Forestry mulching allows you to clearly identify property lines or survey lines. It also helps with fire management of your property, reducing the potential chances for spreading wildfire. Most importantly, it can open your land up to many new uses for your family to enjoy.
