    as a day rate supplying all own equipment transport and oil fuel ect £100 if as some guys only work on pice work calculate on that or whote its costing you per day to complete a days work and whote you need to get a wage the last time i did any thinnings it was about for first £9-£13 per m3/ ton second thinnings £7-£8 clearfell £5-£7 depending on the size of the produce a bit vague but you have got to give it a go to get a realistic produce amount to base your price on

    hence the reason i stick with forestry you go to work do the job until asked to stop it pays the mortgage people dont want to pay for work in there gardens and not get something to show for it sods law
  18. johnnyboy158
    asulox works a treat if applied correctly you need a large area for the chopper to be cost effective and good weather in forestry we can also use an ulva battery operated drift sprayer and apply neat chemical good for smaller patches under trees or napsack sprayer dont leave it too late in the year or you will get a patchy result the green way to go is whip it early on in the year for a few years( only good on small patches) and time consuming

    roundup should work ok at any time of the year as a stump treatment 25% mix works fine with roddies and other woody weeds and trees must be applied to fresh cut stumps within a short time of cutting only spray on your new hedge when the trees have hardened off or use a shield
