If he doesn't , he will lose farm Loans , subsidies and other things , Then this same Government sends your Pay check Tax dollars to Ukraine, But hey it was only 325 million dollars , Then your Government wants to send money to Israel , but hey It's only 105 Billion this time . And at the same time , your Taxes go up to pay for your local schools, roads , and infrastructure , Then this same Government wants to violate your Constitutional Rights by telling you what to do and when to do it . I planted 10 bamboo trees, 3 Apple trees , 2 persimmon trees , and multiple Red Cedar trees . And I'm building 2 Wind Turbines . What have you been doing besides complaining ?

The biggest issue I have run into in central and west Texas is they destroy EVERYTHING. As a surveyor, they are the bane of my existence. You see, back in the 1800's when the land was first surveyed, the surveyors used to pile rocks on top of each other to create a stone mound intended as a marker for a patented corner. Enter the dozer/chain combo, exit the stone mounds or rock mounds used to first establish boundary corners as the chain comes along and wipes them out. If you are a land owner and considering this option, please get a survey done FIRST so that we can put the corners back in when your done demolishing them.

[@4370mopar]

They were also ineffective in long term control of central and west Texas brush as mesquite, red juniper, prickly pear etc. are tough to kill and they just re-sprout. So then you have a knocked over mess that continues to regrow.

Hi, Yes this is not a new technique. My father was using this when he worked on the UK’s infamous Groundnut scheme in 1947/1948. It was used for clearing bush in Tanganyika (now Tanzania). They added a huge steel ball in the middle to prevent the anchor chain riding up the trees. There were burocratic delays procuring the anchor chains. As this was a Government project, the Uk administrators could not understand why ships anchor chains were needed in the middle of AFRICA!

[@sihilius]

[@bobbg9041]

A question i have about doing this is removing the tree, also removes the nutrents from the soil, however if the contents are mulched into small parts then they break down fast by the microbs in the soil causing the nutrents to go back into the soil add better drainage and airation to the soil setting up a better environment for any crops to be planted. At harvest time plant materials are tiled back into the soil where the plant grew only the usable crop was taken away the materials left to decay break down into stuff microbs can use and provide nitrogen for new plants to take up. If you remove everything then you make your soil weaker. Thats why cover crops like clover are planted and tilled in. They build the soil ablity to support new plants.

[@johnnyreb280]

Thebworld's oceans are a significant source of oxygen production. Phytoplankton and algae in the ocean are responsible for producing a substantial portion of the Earth's oxygen through photosynthesis. While trees are often called the "lungs of the Earth," the oceans also play a crucial role in oxygen production. This marine photosynthesis makes the ocean a major contributor to global oxygen levels.

[@markfudger5267]

I agree. We must fertilise the oceans to increase Phytoplankton and Algae growth. All ocean life depends on these organisms, and they are great for carbon capture. As, when they die, they sink to the ocean bed, and they do not burn down like trees. We keep taking food from the oceans but give back nothing in return. We dam up rivers and estuaries preventing silt and nutrients from entering the ocean ecosystem. All this seems to be ignored because who owns the oceans? Who is responsible?

[@petttrobb]

I am absolutely disgusted by how easy it is to destroy a forest... I'm all in flavor of efficiency and technological advancements... and farming is essential to human survival but when you eliminate forests you eliminate any possibility in that location of the diversity that allows different creatures (plant, animal, and human) to survive and hopefully thrive.

[@NormanAtkinson-s2x]

Cleared thousands of acres like this. We would then rake the timber in to wind-rows and progressively burn the stacks of timber down until all timber was gone, which meant that ALL soil was left behind as well as any charcoal and ash. There was never any residue to be seen when we were finished. Also any valuable timber was pushed aside to be removed and any pieces of the tree remaining would end up in the wind-rows. When very big timber was required to be cleared, we had the option of having a third machine follow the chain and push any tree over that was hanging up the chain. Some of the cleared land was for agricultural use, some for cattle.; The land to be used for cattle would be seeded after the timber was burnt, and the seeds would have the fire residue to assist in germination. In brigalow country, the land would regenerate about every five years, needing to be cleared again.

Good to see all that firewood being harvested and all the land turned productive farming land Bravo

[@splitman1129]

Ruining all those trees and my children's oxygen supply.😔 We have enough land cleared people!!

[@fireguymel]

Most of that was already damaged\dead from what appears to be a tornado. Most of that will be replanted back to forest.

[@LordGizmo]

Yes so at least the forest can regrow

[@dirtfarmer7472]

May I make a suggestion stop eating & breathing, then your children will have more food & oxygen

[@gliderider7077]

Lmfao 😂. Please educate yourself on forest management… its for the betterment of forest 🌳

[@deannelson9565]

Oxygen doesn't really come from trees in any large form to actually make a difference for your breathing almost all of the oxygen you breathe comes from the ocean from phytoplankton

[@garyhamilton8534]

Mankind will clear the earth if something is not done

[@MikeJones-rk1un]

A saw and a skidder would save the usable trees. This is making a mess.

[@RobertMiller-ye9hm]

Destroying our planet oh brilliant

[@williamparry9314]

Some nice up lifting music, does not hide the wanton destruction.

[@kevinsawyer8903]

Excellent way to prevent forest fires.

[@losebjughashvili8465]

Wait….wait…so you’re saying 11:50 plants…..plants take in carbon? So, with all the plants…a carbon tax, wouldn’t be necessary…right? And if we have all those plants, how come we have climate……is it change now is it? Exactly, what is the change? Is it like the change that happened during the Viking times? Ohhhh. Wait…where were the cars? Please help me understand this?

[@mikec7860]

They should use this on those pesky rain forests.

[@air7etner]

How long was the chain? 300 ft perhaps?

[@scottwaynewootton731]

What a timesaver, good job I worked with anchor change before and I noticed the one in this video seems to be unlike anyone I’ve never seen is it specially made for this purpose?

[@carlnelson8665]

Yes they are mate. The short pieces of railway line welded on each chain link helps the chain climb over the flattened trees and scrub instead of dragging it all along. It also prevents the chain getting snagged on the likes of bed rock etc...

[@bobhoward6676]

Gotta clear all those pesky trees and produce paper bags to carry everything we buy at the grocery store packaged in plastic rather than plastic bags to save the environment. Wait, what?

[@Drainslime]

I find it very relaxing watching the drone shots

[@waldlaeufer0815]

Wie kann man abends zufrieden einschlafen?

[@GazMic100]

We're getting good at clearing anything that grows.

[@vandeberg649]

A real, special achievement is the rapid growth of new forests! I don't think destroying is admirable. Not something to be proud of.

[@eclipsearchery9387]

Great...now you just made a tangled mess....Much better to get a skilled cutter to clear that...

[@nedread6700]

Trees only just get in the way of windmills by blocking wind

[@gregdrmax]

Interesting! Would like to know how much this particular chain weights and how much it cost.

[@firesurfer]

Probably scrap steel weight.

[@wayneoakley1832]

Alot 😂😂

[@bandjesroker]

Humans are always been resourceful in how to demolish there own living habitat .

[@philthycat1408]

Sorry to say but that tune is a bit ‘Bouncy’ for the complete and utter devastation that’s happening. Amazing machines though.

[@godsdozer]

Can you show me a bulldozer with tires, would be interesting to see.

[@stefanoriccitelli6022]

Innovazione è d'istruzione complimenti!!!

[@jackmcandle6955]

Looks like they are making a mess,you can’t process the trees with cutting machinery afterwards, and in the root plow film the trees were cut so the chain and plows dont work together so you would just have to push the trees into a big dirty winrow.

[@IntegraDIY]

imagine so much land with thousands of stumps 🤔

[@RobertJackson-vc9rk]

The Savannah 616F what you call a root plow, that's not a plow, that's called a disc plows is more like what you see pulled behind horses and mules and now converted to tractor drawn, look up case 150 steam tractor pulling 55 bottom plows and you'll see what a plow looks like.

[@jayjones6904]

Modern tractor can't pull what that old steam tractor pulls

[@jayjones6904]

Saw video of it then modern tractor tried it couldn't pull it

[@RetirementFund750]

This seems kind of pointless because the dozer still has to go back over it all and push up the stumps and get up all the trees they knocked over so why not just push them down while doing the clean up? I’m a logger and we use a cutter machine and a skidder and can clean cut something almost as fast as this can but the stumps are still in the ground so have to be pushed up. But most of the trees the chain is knocking down is just breaking the trees so the stumps still in the ground too. We sell the trees too from small to big trees, small ones are chipped up and big ones made into lumber etc, when they do it this way it’s wasted.
