What To Do Immediately After A Land Clearing

Be ready for this before you clear land. It's critical to get a cover crop, pasture blend, or other seed on land as soon as it is clear. Bare soil loses microbiology by the hour as it is exposed to solar radiation, wind, and moisture loss.

For most land projects using a pasture blend then blowing straw works best. You'll be in the grass as quickly as possible. This assumes land is erosion stable with proper drainage.

You can save ten thousand or more doing land projects the right way. Even an acre done wrong will cost you in soil erosion, constant repairs, and possible EPA fines.

Yes, the Environmental Protection Agency, your state land management service, or even the Federal Fish and Wildlife Service can fine you for simple mistakes. That's why working with a qualified forester is necessary.
