Nice one Bro Hotmas.

thanks bro. If I didn't make mistake from my calculation its average of 7 acres. But I was told it has to be a sound machine like the one working for us.

We have just covered about 23 acres as of today and that's about 24 hours job. With over time, remember the standard work time is 8 hours. Tomorrow we need to fill 10 of our kegs. We still have 3 unused at today's close.
My headache now is diesel!

Welldone boss.
Am really happy for you.
My brother you need to adore that bulldozer operator for delivering 23 acres in 24 hours or maybe you should re-measure the land.
Because if you dont want to lose your top soil an average bulldozer can't do more than 3 acres per day even when it's build line bound on the farm.
It's an earth moving machine with minimum speed level.

We did 10 hours today. Will take the measurement tomorrow.

Good work, well done ! But please be careful when using bulldozers for clearing land meant for crop farming.
Most of the operators are not well trained for this specialities and they tend to clear off part of the TOP SOIL.

Good morning Bro hotmas.

Please do a breakdown of how much it costs per acre/hectare when you are done with the clearance.

Thanks.

I am really concerned with the preservation of the top soil. I am presently in a similar quagmire. How do we clear land with bulldozer without destroying the top soil? Are there specific precautions that must be taken?

the operator needs to be extra careful

Following oo. @hotmas911, you are an inspiration

@hotmas911, are you saying the use of bulldozer to clear farmland is detrimental to the soil...? I dont quiet understand that. How?
