Two important things you should do right at the beginning of every farm operations for success to be assured in your farm business

You need to clear the right size of farm and at the same time preserve your topsoil

I remember many years when we cleared 10 acres of land thinking it was 50 acres
We paid the people that cleared the amount for 50 acres and at the end of the day,we made loss.

That's why you need to know how to measure your own land.
It's extremely easier to do now with some easy apps.

For those clients on our farm estates locations,I also strongly advice that they map out their land with beacons so they don't make that same mistakes I made several years ago.

How do you clear your farmland so you don't lose your top soil

Your top soil is your everything,if you lose your top soil,you will lose your yield because your crop you planted will not have access to enough nutrient to produce the required yield.

Not having this knowledge and knowing how to go about it is a risk itself
Having knowledgeable,experience people in your team is as important as insuring your farm business.
