I need to create a few hundred yards of drainage swales on our new property along the road. The tractor I have coming is a 3520 with loader and hoe. It seems that the easiest way to do this job would be with a box blade that could be easily tilted. In addtion to the massive amounts of money already spent, I would need to invest in the hydraulic diverter kit...$1000, top-n-tilt cylinders....$800, box blade...$1000? for a good one with scarifiers. Is there another way to accomplish this? It seems like this will go very slow with the backhoe. I could have it done when I hire out or rent a dozer to push stumps. Ideally this would be a gently swale that is easy to mow.
