Digging, Stirring, and Overturning?
The distribution of cow manure to increase the organic matter content of the soil was completed. Now it was time to use a bulldozer to plow the soil to a depth of 1 meter, digging, stirring, and overturning.
Due to the excavation works, the soil was quite compact, requiring deep plowing for the roots of the saplings to grow more comfortably. The most suitable equipment for this task was a bulldozer. The bulldozer could plow the soil to a depth of 1 meter, and I arranged to bring it to the field with a trailer. The time had come to start plowing the soil. As the land was plowed, the manure on the surface would mix with the soil, creating an ideal environment for the saplings. The bulldozer got to work, and within a day, the plowing of a 20,000 square meter area was completed. Plowing the land parallel to the slope reduced the risk of erosion.
The soil had now been plowed and mixed with organic fertilizer, making it ready for tree planting. It was time to mark the locations of the saplings and start digging the planting holes.
Great information, thanks for sharing.
