Hi guys. I'm getting ready to have 1.5 acres of trees cleared in my woodlot for a food plot. This part of the country is very rocky but this particular area was once AG as evidence by the miles of stone walls running throughout the property so I'm hoping a lot of the larger rock has already been removed although I'm sure we'll bring a lot more up with the tree roots. I'm going to be using no-till methods so I will not need a perfect stone-free seedbed but I do want to try and get most of the smaller and medium sized rock cleared that will give a rotary mower or disk harrow problems. Is there a "best method" for this? I'm still not sure if we're going to hire a dozer or an excavator to clear the land and I have a box blade, grapple, rotary mower and bucket for the tractor but would be willing to rent equipment or hire a skidsteer if I need to. Like I mentioned, I am going to be doing no-till but I will need to mow on a regular basis and disk occasionally. Thanks.
