Sunday Morning Walk Round

Nice bit of clearing being done along those hedgerows. We might see some pic's in the burnup thread sometime mate?

we like to do a nice tidy job, even if the brash is just going to be heaped up and burnt! We do sometimes take a grab full and put in a field corner or somewhere for wildlife.

 

I think doing this job by hand is much much better all round then the animals who do it with saw blades on tractors. they butcher the trees and hedge most of the time and dont tidy up very well either

True, Ive watched butchers here in Ireland with saw heads, and alot of nice firewood going to waste as well. granted its faster, but the getting on the ground and working methodically through a ditch/boundary is much more enjoyable, especially if there is no pressure.

i think the speed of a blade is what majority of farmers like, but the ones that appreciate wildlife and a job done well, no that this kinda work needs to be done by hand and by people that care.
