Turning old cherry orchard ground back into productive soil takes serious horsepower and the right equipment. After removing cherry trees, we were left with roots, rocks, sticks, grass, and years of orchard debris buried beneath the surface. With labor short and no practical way to prepare the field ourselves, we brought in Brush Tamer with Leon Miller to completely transform the ground. Their Fendt 1050 tractor paired with a deep-working FAE mulching head subsoils and grinds everything directly into the soil, leaving behind an incredibly smooth and clean seedbed ready for cover crops and future orchard planting.
This is the kind of technology changing the future of orchard redevelopment and specialty crop farming in Michigan. If you’re into heavy farm equipment, land clearing, orchard management, or seeing one-of-a-kind machines in action, this video is for you.
Be sure to follow BrushTamer on social media and connect with them online to see more of the incredible work they’re doing across agriculture and land management industries.
