One of the main benefits of bush hogging is that the established base of the field or land that you are tending will remain intact after the the bush hog job is complete. Other types of land management services will agitate the earth and disturb or destroy the roots of the grass underneath. With bush hogging (or brush hogging), the equipment used to cut the foliage closely cuts the top of the brush and leaves the roots alone.

This can also be a detriment in that after you bush hog a field, the existing weeds in the field may have to be cut multiple times before the mulch from the cut chokes out their growth. If your goal is to turn a “messy” pasture into a grazable field for livestock, then more attention may need to be paid to week removal or elimination. However, if the weather in Southeast Louisiana and Mississippi has provided a lot of rain or humidity, causing quick growth of both weeds, bushes, small trees, and grass, then getting bush hog (or brush hog) services may be the way to go.

KNB Services has a variety of equipment for all land management services. Our bush hog service utilizes a compact track loader with an attachment, which is controlled by the track loader. The platform attachment has hinges and blades which are designed to have a lot of “give” when they come in contact with large branches, rocks, small trees, thick vegetation, and other ground impediments. This differentiates bush hogging from lawn mowing.
