What kind of drone do you use and do you have a video of it show & tell 🤔

[@bluetunder40]

Just send Bossman this video Love that clippers .Really badass Thanks Bro

Works pretty slick - better than loppers or chain saw! lol You make my dang ears COLD with your baseball hat in January in SW IA. BTW, whose responsible for half of a fence is called "right hand rule". Be blessed.

[@rugerfarming5387]

Aftering watching this video we order a TeleClipper and a Brush Grapple just like the one you used. Havent got it yet but waiting for it.

[@bobthesnowman8929]

I been looking at tree clippers I like what I see !!

[@iowANFarmer]

I really liked how quick and clean of a job you can do with this combo!

[@ricardofranco9946]

Every line of fences must have 5 parallel lines of redituable kind of trees, to avoid soil degradation, erosion and for the enrichment of the land (every falling 🍁 fertilizer the soil) any tree atract the rain, stop the winter cold, maintaining humidity; at the beginning, it will see apparently a bad idea but in a few years... all the investment at least 5 times recovery, compare the value of a tree with the value of 🌽...

[@canvids1]

wow! just awesome video on new equipment.

[@timgilchrist3065]

I have seen multiple times where guys push out a fence row between 2 fields and the have erosion start. Those grass strips are natural sponges to stop water from rushing across.

[@iowANFarmer]

Correct! If that fence line came out it would need a control structure.

[@timgilchrist3065]

I am already in contact with them about purchasing this shear. I have been looking for something like that for over a year. Thanks for the demo. I told them where I saw it.

[@iowANFarmer]

@@timgilchrist3065 awesome thanks!

[@timgilchrist3065]

Post script: I spoke with Bill Reed this morning and he is impressed with the feedback . Went over what I was wanting and he gave me information that was helpful. He then had Agfolks get in touch with me to confirm my order and waive the shipping because I will pick up at the plant. Spoke with some nice people this morning. Good job.

Cutting thru hedge ie Osage Orange is a great test 👍👍

[@larrydartel1610]

Are Osaga Orange good as fence posts because they do not rot fast?

[@tedsheldon11]

that is pretty cool!

[@firecaptaintom1977]

Any estimate or rule of thumb on bushels per acre gain after this kind of operation? Will the grass strip stay? Locust thorns can hell on tires.

[@iowANFarmer]

I think their website had a calculator. The grass strip and the trees remaining stay. Like I said in the video, the problem with removing this fence line, is that this on particularly is slowing water.

[@williamsmalley5801]

how close to ground level can you get im guessing they say not to run it under the soil

[@iowANFarmer]

Pretty level!

[@donalddiedrick529]

[@EMJ31]

Hey there, fellow Southern Iowa guy! Operating with a 3-year-old in your lap is how you get guys like my Dad, who Grandpa had operating the Caterpillar Sixty starting at the age of 5 to pull houses while he was moving them! It’s the American way! I also had a client, a WWII Battle of the Bulge Bronze Star winner from a farm in Illinois whose doctor took away his ability to drive AFTER 90 YEARS - at the age of 97! (Not because he couldn’t drive, but because he was pulled over going only 8 miles an hour.). That’s how you teach ‘em right!

[@iowANFarmer]

[@dianajean4837]

That's a good idea but most of the trees had to be completely removed.

[@petedohmen8827]

Problem is they will grow back, Could you not cut the whole tree down if its on you side of the fence?

[@iowANFarmer]

Yes, that’s an option.

[@raypitts4880]

hey not fair on the skid steer.

[@iowANFarmer]

How do?

[@anthonybanda8192]

Those we some nice attachments. We have a limb saw that we run on our skid steers and a set of grapples . We remove fence lines for ourselves and others with both methods of thinning and removal. We have added weights to our skid steers to prevent tipping. We tend to burn the brush when conditions are decent. Those demos are great for testing the attachments before you buy . Plus you can use them for projects and the company gets great reviews and advertising. Nice video keep up the good work and stay safe !

We got one 6 years ago to clean trailers and fence lines with its 3 point and has a remote but I love it. But note to self don’t loose the remote after taking it off cause a replacement was $4k lol and then I found it 6 months later in the tool box on the cutter 😂 after snapping a sheer bolt

It’s true. But a lot of the trees I clipped we on their side of the fence anyway.

[@scottnunya2441]

It seems like just cutting the trees down with a chainsaw and dragging them out would be quicker. I guess if you're just trying to trim this would be perfect

I've always been a huge fan of a fence line. But it needs to be nice and clean. So many of them turn into what you're working on. The fence line might not look like much but it's amazing the wildlife that call it home.

[@iowANFarmer]

Around here there is plenty of other habitats. Look at the pile of brush I just made for them .

[@iowANFarmer]

It is!

[@scotthackman861]

Why do you think farmers used to plant trees along fence lines back in the day? Perhaps that just grew naturally as you can’t get the equipment close to the fence to till.

[@scotthackman861]

14:20 thanks for the description. I’d think fence lines are great to keep erosion at bay.

[@iowANFarmer]

People used to plant windbreaks, for cattle and prevention of erosion. This was probably caused by natural events here.

[@philstocks7859]

I realize overgrown fence rows sap crops. I also realize you are not old enough to remember the 1930's. Read a little history. WIND AND WATER EROSION. Thin the windbreak. DO NOT REMOVE IT. There are far too many Iowa full sections (640 acres) with not one fence or tree. I have also seen 4 foot deep road ditches drifted level full with wind eroded top soil. I realize folks farm to make a living. Cash income should not be the only consideration. STEWARDSHIP in the long run means continued income for years to come.

[@iowANFarmer]

That is a problem on flat land country. But here we don’t have big fields like that. We don’t do fall tillage, to prevent wind erosion. We also build terraces and put in drainage tile to give out ground the ability to hold the rain when it comes. We are focused on stewardship. Overgrown and neglected fence lines come from a lack of stewardship.
