Bushmaster Disc Harrow

[25002500]

Does anyone have any experience with a Bushmaster Disc Harrow?

I need a disc harrow to cut a fireline through a recently cleared area with stumps ranging from 1-4 inch diameter. I understand that the Bushmaster is likely the best tool for the job. I am trying to find an attachment to pull behind a 65 hp tractor and avoid using a bulldozer. Any thoughts on this?

Pay the forestry commission in your state to do it with their fire tractor. Its really fairly cheap. In this state it use to be liek $45/hour with an X hour minimum. I think the $amount has gone up but not sure what to and i dont know about minimum hours.

I suspect the services offered and fees charged by forestry commissions/departments/divisions differ across states.

I have applied for USDA EQIP funding to have the NC Forest Service (NCFS) perform a controlled burn on a pine plantation tract. The NCFS charges $100/hour for their bulldozer work (clearing to mineral soil a 10' wide break around the tract) and $3.45/mile for hauling the bulldozer to and from the site.
