Hi
Which is the best way to clear land like on pictures? 20 years untouched land, heavy grass, trees, brush...I need land for make plantation. Can use herbicides. Slope 5-10%. Some trees have 20" in diameter. Dozer, excavator 25 tons is 60$ per hour here. Total 20Ha or 40 arces.

A mulching machine would do that quite nicely and not leave debris to be hauled off.
Either a mulching head on an excavator type machine or a dedicated unit with a Fecon, FAE, or Denis Cimaf head would work very well. Have no idea what that would cost an hour in your part of the world.

If it $60 for 25 ton excavator, that would be hard to beat!

I bought a 19 ton excavator and have been using it to clear my building lot and build roads. Maple and oak tree roots up to 18" in diameter and rocks as big as a kitchen table don't stand a chance :) Excavators are awesome!
