Basically the area is forest high condecned grass bushes with minimum rather small trees here and there. In the contract I have to clear out all of this bushes, take down all trees and plow 15-20cm deep to prepare the land for seedling corn, yes I also have to plant the seedlings. As for the small trunks that are able to take out will be cleared, and as for the bigger ones will remain put. The cleared grass will be pushed bundle together for fire when dry. I apologize to everyone If there is any mistake in spelling or wrong use of words as English is my second language. Thanks

Wow! :shocked: That is a lot of work. So how do you plan to approach all of that? It sounds like you need mowers, plows, disks, planters and a way to move brush to burn piles. That will be a lot of work for 10 tractors on that much land.

If you are dealing with a lot of fine fuels such as grass, I would seriously consider burning the whole area.

Split it up into 1000 acre blocks and put fire breaks in.

Make sure you know what you're doing first but a good prescribed fire will do most of the work for you.

You could do 1000 acres a day easy (and still be safe) once you get the feel for it.

Just another idea.

There's a regulation to reduce slash and burn process. And I wouldn't get paid doing that anyway.555555 . I know it's a large area, but if carefully planed it can be done. Also we work 330 days/year. If 10 units with this type of land should be able to finish more than 10 Ha. But we might have some problems with the tractors here and there and other problems also, so lets ( - ) out a few days leaving about 260+ days. Calculating we should be able to do more than 1000 Ha. easily.. I'll update about today's shopping for tractors, today I visited new holland dealers and they introduced me the TD95d 12F-12R 98hp.......so is there any advice / comments compared to Kubota M9540 8F-8R electic gear. Thanks and still very opened to and replies.:licking:

What about a hydro axe ? Less carriers and better result ?

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum so please be easy on me. I'm in the construction business. Mostly roads and so on. This year my company has received a contract for land clearance and plowing total of 10,000 Hectare for a corn farm ( industry farm ) in Laos-South east Asia. I'm not very experienced with tractors so I would like to ask you guys some advice. The area is small sized wood and high condecnced grass, I would like to ask what model, brand, HP attached equipment would you guys advise me to buy. Please consider the best consumption and most suitable for my project. I'm focus on these brands because of maitance and repair. In Laos has new holland, kubota, john deer dealers. Thanks and all advice is welcomed.

I think you need a bunch of mulchers and some 250 hp tractors with soil stabilizers on them to take care of the stumps the stabilizers will till down 15-20 inches deep
