- Massy Furgason 396, ASV-100 with Cimaf, D9H(Frankenstien), D9G(Rusty), D6D(troublemaker), and JD 6420P :)
The crew I work with runs two D9Hs with v blades followed by a D8R, D7G and D6s. Shearing wise we can do about 20-30 acres a day depending on terrain and how sharp the edge is in the blades. Don't be fooled a D9H can shear a 20 inch stump without any loss of power. Raking wise I alone can do anywhere from 8- 12 acres a day. Best be is to have someone shear it and run a new earth plow over it and re seed it. The break down of the stumps can take from a year to 2 years. Just depends in what you want to do. And those prices sound off the wall, if you pay 1200 an acre you better bug the crap out of them and make sure you get it done the way you want it!!
