Reasons to Forestry Mulch

---

Minimized Erosion: Mulching keeps the soil intact by reducing the disturbance that would occur with tree removal.

Organic Matter Addition: Mulch decomposes over time, enriching the soil

and improving its structure, which is particularly important in rocky areas with little topsoil.

Faster Process: A disk mulcher can handle trees and brush quickly, saving time compared to cutting, stacking, and hauling.

Versatility: Mulchers can handle trees, stumps, and underbrush in a single pass, making them highly efficient in clearing land.

Reduced Cleanup Costs: No need to haul away debris or burn piles, which eliminates disposal expenses.

No Additional Equipment: Cutting trees often requires chainsaws, heavy machinery for hauling, and additional labor for clean-up.

Natural Fertilizer: The mulch acts as a natural fertilizer, promoting regrowth and improving the land’s capacity to support vegetation.

Habitat Conservation: Mulching can leave behind ground cover that benefits wildlife and reduces environmental disruption.

Fuel Load Management: Mulching reduces fire hazards by breaking down vegetation into smaller, less flammable pieces.

Immediate Fire Barrier: The mulch layer can act as a temporary barrier against surface fires.
