Commercial Tractor Mowing Services in North Texas

with 5K Land Management

Overview

Exactly like a riding mower but much bigger! At 5K Land Management, we offer tractor mowing services in Fort Worth, Dallas, and Weatherford when you need a landscape mowed at an even greater quality than a front lawn. Using a tractor brings more to the table than just a larger application, as it also provides strength, efficiency, and access to areas too difficult for smaller equipment. Most forms of turf are sparsely populated with other plant-life like brush and weeds, but when it comes to tractor mowing, they won’t make a difference. With 5K, it doesn’t matter how long the grass is, just how short you want it when we’re done!

Pasture Mowing

Acreage mowing is an important component of pasture management. This is because it minimizes the spread of weeds while maintaining a higher quality forage.

However, timing is a big factor in initially controlling, and then maintaining, weed control in your pastures. Mowing before weeds produce seed heads limits the spread of seed, and it is generally most effective on annual and broadleaf weeds. Once the weeds produce seeds, mowing spreads the seeds and increases the number of weeds in your pasture.

Tractor mowing services can also help maintain a pasture stand that is uniform in maturity, which then improves the health of your cattle, as cattle and horses prefer to eat shorter grasses due to their higher protein content. Therefore, commercial mowing services can help enhance the overall quality of nutrition for your pasture.

Brush-Hogging

Brush-hogging is useful when a property needs to be cleared of light brush up to 1” in diameter, and it’s one of the most basic forms of land clearing. Brush-hogging is most effective on level, dry land that is clear of debris.

Brush-hogging is a good choice when there is enough room for a tractor to operate properly, but it can also be dangerous due to flying debris. That's why it’s best to make sure you hire an experienced professional that is fully insured. That’s where 5K Tractor Mowing is here to help!

Fence Line Clearing

Fence line clearing not only allows greater mobility on your property– it also allows greater accessibility throughout your property. It also protects your fence so that it stands strong for years to come. Weeds and brush can also short out an electric fence, so regular mowing and fence line clearing is a good choice to reduce problems now and in the future.

Tractor mowing services can keep your fence lines clear and prolong the life of your fences. Branches and overgrown brush can also stretch or break fence wire, and damaged fences can also be a hazard for livestock and equipment.

Last of all, fence line clearing can serve as a fireguard against wildfires. As a fireman-owned and operated business– we can attest to the fact that your local or volunteer fire department will appreciate easier accessibility when fighting wildfires.

Rotation

Resting pastures is an important step in maintaining productive pastures. One of the best methods of improving pasture conditions is the practice of rotational pasture grazing. Livestock tends to feed on grasses in the same area and can eventually weaken and kill pasture plants.

That’s why it’s important to rotate them from one pasture to another to allow better grass coverage, healthier livestock, reduce erosion, and minimize weed growth. Tractor and acreage mowing can assist with your rotation efforts to keep the grass consistent and reduce weeds.

Renovation

Renovating is usually recommended in lieu of re-establishing pastures. Renovation, particularly in high-traffic areas, may be required frequently to maintain good grass. Pastures should be mowed or grazed fairly short so the soil is not shaded, and weeds should be controlled to minimize competition with germinating species.

When putting horses back on a renovated pasture, it’s best to allow it to grow to about 6-8 inches, mow it, and then allow it to regrow to 6-8 inches and then mow it again. After the second mowing, allow the pasture to regrow to about 4-6 inches before putting horses on the pasture. This process allows the grasses and ground cover to establish an adequate root system.
